Heartland played out a goalless draw at home to Lobi Stars on Sunday at the Dan Anyiam Stadium,Owerri.
The Naze Millionaires started the game on the backfoot but they later clawed their way into the game with some brilliant display.
The game, which was used to commemorate the 21 years remembrance of two of the fallen heroes of the club who died in a plane crash on September 18, 1994, lacked the vibe and the zeal of a match the home team wanted to win.
There was a minute silence for the repose of the souls of Omale Aimola and Uche Ikeogu, two players who died in the Oriental Airline crash before the start of the match against the Pride of Benue.
Heartland lacked the cutting edge to get the necessary goals in the first half and they had Fortune Omoniwari who was doing all the dirty jobs in the attack but his best was not sufficient for the hosts.
The second half went the same way as Heartland could only settle for a point out of a possible three.
Heartland have 44 points from 30 matches while Lobi are on 36 points from 30 games.

Vardy: It Was Easy To Reject Arenal Move

    Jamie Vardy says it was easy for him to reject a move to Arsenal, insisting both his head and his heart told him to stay at Leicester City. After playing a crucial role in last season's surprising Premier League title win, the England international was the subject of a bid from the Gunners which triggered his £22 million release clause. Instead, the striker opted to remain at the King Power Stadium and signed a new deal with the Foxes. And Vardy, 29, says it was an easy decision to make. “I was in a hotel room [in Chantilly] for so many hours of every day with nothing to do. You had a lot of time on your hands," he told The Guardian . “I am not going to beat around the bush – every time I thought about it, and every aspect of it I thought about, both my head and my heart were saying to stay at Leicester, which is why I made my decision to stay. “There were loads of reasons. You get that much time to think about, every single thing down to the tea lady. You think about w...
