Dennis Meshack scored the winning goal as Anthony Encho's side kept their Nigeria National League Super Eight qualification hopes intact with a vital win at Soun stadium.
The back slim goal poacher might not be in contention for the highest goal scorer award but his brilliant strike against Smart City FC has the potential to be one of the standout moments of the season.
Despite the match was played behind closed doors, Dennis Meshack produced a moment of individual brilliance to help Crown FC of Ogbomoso defeat Smart City FC on Saturday evening.
The former Warri Wolves forward was picked out by Tosin Oshomo and produced a stunning touch and turn, spinning Adejokun Tunde in the process.
Meshack Dennis, who left for Warri Wolves last season's mid season with five goals kept his composure in the final area to steer the ball past Oremade Olawale. It was a truly magical goal and has the potential to be one of the standout moments of the season.

The kick. The touch. The turn. The finish. What a sensational goal.
Speaking to OyoSportsNews after the match, Crown FC Head Coach Anthony Encho rued his players’ inability to capitalise on their early dominance despite 1-0 win.
"The match didn't go the way I wanted, we created many chances and ought to have killed the game at first half. We need to score goals to be on top of the table. We just didn't put the ball in the back of the net. We had enough chances to get the win. It's very disappointing."
"Although about three of my players were missing due to injuries and red card but we had a team that can still go ahead to get positive result. We'll go back to training ground and work on lapses."
