As the race to the Nigeria Women Football League (NWFL) Super Six hots up, unstoppable Edo Queens FC will on Wednesday, at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium, Benin City continue their winning run as they host Ekiti Queens FC in the second leg of the NWFL premiership.
Despite their hostility in the first leg against Edo Queens in a highly intensity match played at the Oluyemi Kayode Stadium, Ado-Ekiti, Edo Queens pipped Ekiti Queens 1-0 in front of their aggressive and very volatile football fans.
In this return fixture, the Benin based Queens have said that there will be no hiding place for their opponets, as the NWFL potential league champions are battle ready to sink the Oluyemi Kayode girls making sure they return to Ekiti State with zero point. If that is achieved, the Ekiti ladies will now have to battle to get out of regulation zone.
Moreso, Ekiti Queens problem will get more complicated after they must have suffered massive defeat in the hands of the Benin Queens in the meeting. Both teams have confronted each other a number of times and Edo Queens have always had an upper hand.
For the home fans, there is no reason to panic because the Benin based land ladies have promised never to let them down as they are focused and working very hard to increase Ekiti Queen’s woes.
Sitting second in Group A table with 24 points after 11 matches the Moses Aduku coached side would not want to be distracted, fillers reaching us from their camp reveal that the Senator Monday Okpebholo girls are mentally and physically ready to compound Ekiti Queens woes. The Ekiti girls presently sit in seventh position with 10 points with six matches left to end the season before the prestigious Super Six showdown.
After Wednesday’s cracker against Ekiti Queens, Edo Queens will fly to Adamawa State where they will face Adamawa Queens at Makwada Stadium in Match Day 13 of the NWFL in Yola.
It is also important to note that Edo Queens’ dream of having the state flag hoisted at the Super Six is something that must be done, as no team in Group A is capable of stopping the Monday Okpebholo Queens.
