The Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) has sanctioned Enyimba and Rangers International for violating its framework and rules during their Matchday 35 match.

Rangers International received three points and three goals, but Enyimba FC was fined N10 million for violating the rules.

The Oriental derby, matchday 35, between the two teams at the Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium on Sunday, was abandoned due to a dubious penalty handed to the home team, Rangers International, in the last minutes.

Both teams have 48 hours to appeal the verdict. Rangers International is at the top of the league table, with 64 points from 35 matches, followed by Enyimba FC and Remo Stars, both with 59 points.
