Edo Queens emerged winners of the 2024 WAFU CAF Women’s Champions League title following a comfortable 3-0 win against Benin Republic’s Ainonvi FC in the final on Friday.
Moses Aduku’s side struggled to break down their opponent early in the game.
The Nigerian champions however went into the break with a 1-0 lead courtesy of captain Suliat Abideeen’s fine finish.
The second half was also keenly contested but enterprising forward Emem Essien doubled Edo Queens lead on the hour mark.
Elizabeth Ukandu’s own goal 14 minutes from time put the game totally beyond Ainonvi FC.
Edo Queens make the history as the first Nigerian club to win five consecutive matches on the continent.
The Benin City club also entered the history books as the second Nigerian club to win the competition after Bayelsa Queens in 2022.
They will compete in the CAF Women’s Champions League as reward for winning the regional title.
waoooo that’s good.congratulations to them.
