Nasarawa Amazons are set to clash with Rivers Angels in the women’s final of the 2025 President Federation Cup, scheduled for 28 June at Lagos’s Mobolaji Johnson Arena. The Amazons, champions in 2005 and 2019, remain unbeaten in the tournament, with emphatic wins over Kwara Ladies, Bayelsa Queens, Sunshine Queens, and Edo Queens.
Rivers Angels, highly experienced with nine cup titles, reached the final after a narrow victory against Ibom Angels, courtesy of a 63rd‑minute goal from young substitute Aminat Folorunsho. Both teams have lost in recent finals to each other, setting the stage for a compelling rematch.
With female spectators set to pack the historic Lagos waterfront stadium, excitement is building for what promises to be a fiercely contested showdown.

We recognise this match as more than a contest for silverware it’s a testament to resilience and legacy. Nasarawa Amazons, under Josephine Mathias’s inspiring leadership, seek redemption from their 2019 defeat. Their path to the final has been nothing short of dominant.
We also understand Rivers Angels’ hunger for a tenth title. Their nine‑time triumphs reflect a culture of success, and young talents like Aminat Folorunsho inject fresh energy into an accomplished setup. We feel this final is a narrative of rivalry renewed both squads have history, pride, and the promise of new glory on their side. The choice of Lagos’s compact waterfront arena only adds intimacy and intensity to the occasion.
We support the vision of elevating women’s football in Nigeria. Finals like this illustrate the depth, passion, and quality present in the women’s game demanding praise, investment and fanfare. We firmly believe that on 28 June, a new chapter will be written. Whether it’s Amazons reclaiming their crown or Angels reinforcing their dominance, the match will affirm that this tournament still commands respect and reverence and Nigerian women’s football continues to thrive.
