Their milestone came in spectacular fashion with a thrilling 7-4 victory over Bucknor Football Club, pushing their season tally to an impressive 52 goals.
While Real Sapphire hold pole position in the TCC standings, eyeing an end to Beyond Limits Football Academy’s hegemony, Atlantic Business have stolen the spotlight as the league’s ultimate showmen.
Their goal-scoring exploits have turned heads and set them apart as a force to be reckoned with, even if they sit fifth on the table with 36 points from 21 matches.
Far from mere contenders, Atlantic have become the pacesetters in excitement, blending audacious attacking play with a knack for racking up jaw-dropping scorelines.
The journey to 50+ goals has been punctuated by standout performances that showcase their offensive firepower.
A 4-0 dismantling of Sporting Lagos, a 3-1 triumph over Gbagada, a wild 5-3 victory against VOE, and a ruthless 7-0 thrashing of Imperial highlight their ability to overwhelm opponents.
The recent 7-4 win against Bucknor, however, stands as a testament to their relentless spirit, conceding four but still emerging with a three-goal margin.
It’s a brand of football that has earned them a reputation as the TCC’s most entertaining outfit.

For Atlantic Business, the numbers tell only part of the story. With three nicknames reflecting their identity—God’s own team, Shield of Africa, and The Business, they embody a swagger and confidence that resonates beyond the pitch.
While they trail Real Sapphire and others in the race for the title, their fifth-place standing belies the impact they’ve made.
Thirty-six points from 21 games is a solid return, but it’s the 52 goals that have fans buzzing and opponents scrambling for answers.
