Posted : 29 June 2025

Rivers Angels showcased their trademark resilience on Saturday, overturning a two-goal deficit to beat Adamawa Amazons 4–2 on penalties and capture the 2025 President Federation Cup women’s title at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena in Lagos.

The thrilling encounter between two of Nigeria’s most formidable women’s football sides ended 2–2 after regulation time, with the game forced into penalties to decide the winner.

Adamawa Amazonsnicknamed the Solid Miners Ladies—looked on course for a famous victory after racing to a 2–0 lead in the first half, taking full advantage of early defensive lapses from the Port Harcourt-based club.

But Rivers Angels, true to their name and reputation, mounted an incredible second-half comeback. With determination and tactical precision, they clawed their way back into the game, drawing level before the final whistle.

With no winner after 90 minutes, the game proceeded to a penalty shootout, where Rivers Angels held their nerve, converting four of their spot-kicks to the Amazons' two.

This latest triumph cements Rivers Angels’ status as Nigeria’s most dominant women’s club, further adding to their illustrious trophy cabinet and reaffirming their place at the summit of women’s football in the country.

Led by their experienced coaching crew and driven by the hunger for more silverware, Rivers Angels’ victory is yet another reminder of why they remain the benchmark in the Nigerian women’s game.
