Edo Queens Challenge WAFU Final Result, Seek Replay

Edo Queens have formally petitioned the Confederation of African Football (CAF) to annul their 3-2 defeat to Ghana’s Ampem Darkoa Ladies in the WAFU Zone B qualifying final. The petition, signed by the club’s chairman Jarrett Tenebe, requests either a full replay of the match or to be declared winners if a replay is not feasible.

The club alleges that the October 29 continuation of the match was conducted in violation of conditions set by CAF’s Organising Committee for Women’s Football. The original match, played on September 5 in Ouagadougou, ended 2-2, with Edo Queens winning a penalty shootout that was later deemed ineffective by CAF.

The continuation was directed to resume from extra time, but Edo Queens claim it was held in Cairo without proper authorization and that they were prevented from fielding eligible players. They argue that the match should reflect the original conditions and are contesting the legitimacy of the proceedings.
