Super Eagles goalkeeper Francis Uzoho delivered a composed performance as AC Omonia Nicosia secured the 2025/26 Cypriot First Division title with a commanding 3-0 victory over Aris Limassol on Saturday, May 2.
The triumph at GSP Stadium sealed Omonia’s record-extending 22nd league title and ended a five-year wait for domestic glory, with their last triumph coming in the 2020/21 season.
Dominant Display Seals Title
Omonia capped off a remarkable campaign in emphatic fashion, finishing with an impressive +56 goal difference and the league’s best defensive record.
Up front, Ryan Mmaee starred with a brace to put the game beyond doubt, while Muamer Tanković added a third to complete the rout against a subdued Aris side.
Uzoho’s Assured Presence
Although largely untested for long spells, Uzoho produced key saves when called upon to preserve the clean sheet, demonstrating focus and reliability between the posts.
The 27-year-old, who joined Omonia in 2021, made five league appearances this season, recording three clean sheets and conceding just three goals, an efficient contribution in a title-winning campaign.
First League Title for Nigerian Star
The victory marks Uzoho’s first Cypriot league title, adding a significant milestone to his career and strengthening his standing within the club’s recent history.
Celebrations followed across social media, with EaglesTracker highlighting his achievement as Nigerian fans hailed the goalkeeper’s success.

Omonia’s title win reflects a balanced campaign built on attacking firepower and defensive solidity, particularly during the decisive championship playoff phase.
For Uzoho, a regular figure in Nigeria’s national team setup, the triumph provides a timely confidence boost ahead of upcoming international fixtures. It also reinforces his role as a key representative of Nigerian talent excelling across European leagues.
As celebrations continue in Nicosia, Uzoho and his teammates are set to parade the trophy in front of jubilant supporters, capping a season that will be remembered as one of dominance and long-awaited success.
