Eight Teams Through to Women’s Federation Cup Last Eight

The 30th edition of the Nigeria Women’s President Federation Cup has its final eight. Across multiple venues on Monday, June 2, the eight quarter final spots were filled after a round of 16 that mixed high scoring wins with nervy shootout drama. Rivers Angels continued their dominant run in this competition, while Edo Queens and Confluence Queens both made powerful statements with their respective scorelines.

Round of 16 Results

Rivers Angels were comfortable in Eket, brushing aside Abia Angels 3-1 to continue their title defence without dropping a beat. The Port Harcourt club, chasing an 11th President Federation Cup title, had already sent the starkest possible warning in the round of 32 when they demolished NAF Queens 12-0. A 3-1 win in the last 16 is routine for a squad of this quality, and they arrive in the quarter finals as heavy favourites once again.

FC Robo Queens delivered the most entertaining result of the round, edging Remo Stars Queens in an eight goal contest that finished 5-3. Heartland Queens were more surgical, ending the hopes of Ahudiyannem Queens with a dominant 4-0 performance that underlined their credentials as genuine contenders this season. Sunshine Queens were similarly efficient, beating Plateau United Queens 2-0 to book their place in the last eight with little drama.

Shootout Drama and a Record Scoreline

The two most dramatic moments of the round came in contrasting ways. Ibom Angels and Bayelsa Queens played out a 1-1 draw before Ibom Angels held their nerve in the shootout, converting five of their kicks to win 5-4 and eliminate the Bayelsa side. In a similar pattern, Nasarawa Amazons survived a 1-1 draw against Naija Ratels and edged the penalty contest 4-3 to book their quarter final place. Both sides had to work significantly harder than the scorelines during normal time suggested.

The largest margin of the round belonged to Confluence Queens, who thrashed Esthington FC 8-0 in Enugu. It was the most emphatic performance of the round by any side, and it announces the Kogi State club as a genuine threat to the established powers in the competition. Edo Queens also put down a marker, beating Delta Queens 4-0 to set up what could be a compelling run to the final. Delta Queens are four time winners of this competition and were expected to provide a sterner test. Edo Queens’ comfortable win signals they are operating at a level that few sides in this year’s draw can match. For fans placing accumulator bets across both the women’s and men’s domestic cup competitions this month, there is useful context in the Bet9ja Cut1 and cashout guide ahead of the quarter-final fixtures.

Quarter-Finalists Confirmed

The quarter final draw will determine whether Rivers Angels face one of the tournament’s surprise packages or a familiar rival. Given the form shown by Edo Queens and Confluence Queens this round, the path to the final will not be straightforward for any of the eight remaining clubs. With the Super Falcons also in camp in Ikenne preparing for their WAFCON 2026 campaign, this cup run is a chance for domestic players to push their claims and make themselves impossible to ignore ahead of Morocco.
