Edo Queens to Resume WAFU-B Final Against Ampem FC
Edo Queens Football Club has accepted the Confederation of African Football's decision to resume the outstanding extra time of the WAFU-B final against Ampem FC of Ghana on October 29, 2026, in Cairo, Egypt. The club's media officer, Ojieva Ehiosunhe, stated that the outcome of the appeal was disappointing but, after consultations with the Edo State Government and the Nigeria Football Federation, the team decided to complete the match for fairness.
The club will depart for Cairo on Monday and expressed gratitude for the support received during the appeal process. Edo Queens aims to secure their place in the CAF Women’s Champions League and has called on supporters to continue backing the team.
The initial match ended in a 2-2 draw, with Edo Queens winning 4-1 on penalties, but Ampem FC protested the decision, leading to the CAF ruling in their favor for the extra time to be played.
