Bayelsa United and Doma United are off the mark for the season after picking up their first wins of the season.

John Prince pulled one back for the away side in the 89th minute to ensure a tense finish to the game in Yenagoa.

It was a fruitless away trip for Uyo-based Dakkada FC following a narrow defeat in Gombe.

Emmanuel Ogwuche was the hero for Doma as he scored the decisive winner just before the hour mark.
