At Ado-Ekiti, Rising Stars were stunned by visiting ABS FC who took the lead in the 6th minute through Kingsley Onovo, however Kayode Agboola equalized for the home side and Segun Bajowa scored the winner in the second half to end the game 2-1.
At Kaduna it was 'penalties-galore' as Insidibe Olivier converted from the spot twice for the home side, after Terry Envoh had earlier given Sharks the lead.
The game in Kaduna was however marred by allegations of questionable officiating as three controversial penalty kicks were awarded to the hosts, one of which was lost, in a game that is reported to have lasted for over one hundred minutes.
