The semi-final stage of the LAWSA Games 2026 at Ebonyi State University delivered drama, heartbreak, and unforgettable moments as 200 Level and 500 Level secured their spots in the finals of the Faculty of Law tournament.
200L Knock Out “Unbeatables” in Fierce Battle
On Thursday, February 19, 2026, 100 Level faced 200 Level in a highly anticipated encounter. The first leg had already set the tone, but the return fixture confirmed 200L’s dominance as they secured qualification on a 3–2 aggregate scoreline.
Despite a spirited performance from 100L — popularly nicknamed “The Unbeatables” — their resilience was not enough to overturn the deficit. They fought relentlessly, pushing forward with intensity and passion, but 200L held firm under pressure.
At the final whistle, emotions ran high. For 200L, it was celebration and relief. For 100L, it was heartbreak, as several players were visibly emotional after being eliminated from the tournament.
With that victory, 200 Level officially advanced to the LAWSA 2026 Finals.
500L Survive Penalty Thriller Against 400L
If the first semi-final was intense, the second was nothing short of electrifying.
On Friday, February 20, 2026, 400 Level locked horns with 500 Level in what many described as one of the toughest matches of the tournament. Both sides displayed tactical discipline, defensive solidity, and relentless attacking effort.
The match ended 2–2 on aggregate, forcing a dramatic penalty shootout.
In the tense shootout, 500L held their nerve to secure a 4–3 penalty victory. Nelson and Samuel Victor missed crucial chances for 400L, while only Julius failed to convert for 500L — a slim margin that ultimately decided the contest.
The final whistle sparked jubilation among 500L supporters, while 400L players left the field in visible disappointment after falling just short of the final.
With the win, 500 Level advanced to the grand finale.

I wish to recommend a special award for the guy(Neymar as he was referred to)who admirably officiated a recent friendly football match(500L Vs 400L second game) after the official referee withdrew.Following a 2-2 draw and an emotional (but non-derogatory) outburst from one player, the assigned referee chose not to continue, leaving the match at risk of abandonment. This guy(Neymar. I don’t know if that’s his name)unprepared, not in referee attire, and with no prior intention to officiate,voluntarily stepped forward. He took charge fairly and competently, ensuring the extra 30 minutes and any penalties were completed successfully, allowing both teams to finish the game in good spirit.This selfless act preserved the joy and purpose of student sports. His initiative, responsibility, and impartial leadership embody true sportsmanship and the values we promote.Identifying and publicly recognizing this guy with a “Sportsmanship” award would honor his contribution and inspire others to prioritize the game’s spirit.
I was there and I witnessed everything as a spectator. I believe I’m not the only one who will be happy if he is recognised. This is just a suggestion and I really hope you look into it and probably consider it too.
