Robo End Amazons’ Unbeaten Run as Edo Thrash Abia 6-2 on MD3

Matchday Three of the NWFL Super Six delivered the first genuine disruption to the title narrative since the championship playoff round began in Port Harcourt. The side that had been setting the pace was beaten for the first time. The side that had been written off after two opening defeats came through with their best performance of the competition. And a six-goal demolition kept the table’s joint leaders company at the summit with just three matchdays remaining.

The evening’s most consequential result was Robo Queens’ first Super Six victory of the campaign. Emmanuel Osahon’s side had entered Wednesday having lost both of their opening fixtures, sitting at the foot of the table with a goal difference that reflected the heavy defeat to Edo Queens on Matchday Two. What they produced against Nasarawa Amazons was a different team entirely: disciplined, organised, and decisive when their opportunities arrived in the second half.

Robo Queens Dismantle the Unbeaten Leaders

The first half produced nothing for either side, though Robo Queens’ defensive structure gave early signs that they had come with a specific plan to limit Nasarawa’s creative outlets. Their task was made easier by the Amazons’ inability to threaten the goal with any seriousness, a pattern that continued throughout the match: by the final whistle Nasarawa had recorded zero shots on target across 90 minutes against a Robo Queens side registering eight. The dominance that statistic represents goes well beyond a scoreline.

Opeyemi Ajakaye broke the deadlock in the 59th minute with a composed finish that reflected the confidence of a player who had been waiting for her moment. Five minutes later, Oluwakemi Adegbuyi made it 2-0 after a well worked attacking move that cut through what remained of Nasarawa’s defensive shape. From that point the game was settled. Robo Queens saw it out with the conviction of a side that had already made the statement they came to Port Harcourt to make. Nasarawa’s unbeaten record, which had stretched across six consecutive group stage and Super Six matches entering Wednesday, is gone.

Edo Queens in Devastating Form

While Robo Queens were dismantling the table leaders across the city, Edo Queens were putting six goals past Abia Angels in a performance that left absolutely no ambiguity about their intentions for the remaining fixtures. The 6-2 scoreline against a side that had arrived at Matchday Three on the back of their historic first Super Six win last Monday was a stark reminder of the quality gap between the established powers and the competition’s newcomers when those established powers are operating at full capacity. Abia Angels scored twice, which is itself a reflection of the attacking instinct they have shown throughout the campaign, but six against them tells the more complete story of Wednesday’s encounter.

Edo Queens remain joint top of the Super Six standings alongside Nasarawa Amazons, both on six points after three matchdays. The difference is that Nasarawa now carry a defeat on their record while Edo Queens remain unbeaten. That distinction, still three matchdays from resolution, is exactly the kind of detail that separates champions from runners-up at the end of a round-robin competition.

Bayelsa Queens Win the Derby

The South-South derby between Bayelsa Queens and Rivers Angels produced a 2-1 victory for the reigning champions, who bounced back from their Matchday Two defeat to Nasarawa Amazons with a result that keeps their title aspirations alive. Rivers Angels, who had been beaten by Abia Angels on Matchday Two, could not add to their points tally in the local derby, leaving them on three points alongside Robo Queens as the competition crosses its midpoint.

The updated standings going into the final three matchdays show Edo Queens and Nasarawa Amazons as joint leaders on six points each, with Robo Queens and Rivers Angels both on three and the full picture still in flux. Three matchdays remain, each club still has three matches to play, and the combination of results required for each club to win the title carries enough variables to keep the title race genuinely open until the final round. The Super Six concludes with three more matchdays in Port Harcourt, and the story is far from settled.
