By Ogo Clarkson

Apex Krane has emerged Champions of the maiden edition of the Nwankwo Kanu Under 19 Scouting Tournament, defeating Campos Academy 3-0 in the final.

Ekene Nwachukwu scored a brilliant goal in the 13th minute, putting Apex Krane ahead 1-0 at the end of the first half.

Campos Academy resumed the second half with renewed ambition, seeking to level the score. 

However, Justice Chibuike extended Apex Krane's lead with a well-executed free kick from 20 yards, following a foul committed by Campos. 

Despite their efforts, Campos was unable to find a consolation goal, and a defensive error led to Nelson Sule scoring the third goal for Apex Krane, resulting in a disappointing outcome for Campos Academy.
