Nigeriaโs Edo Queens have advanced to the semi-finals of the WAFU B CAF Womenโs Champions League after a decisive 3-0 victory over Ghanaโs Hasaacas Ladies in their second Group B match.
Emem Essien scored twice, and Suliat Abideen added another goal, securing Edo Queensโ second consecutive win in the competition and guaranteeing their place in the semi-finals with a game still to play.
Under the leadership of Moses Adukwu, Edo Queens previously defeated AS Garde of Niger 5-0 in their opening match. They have scored eight goals and conceded none across their two games.
Edo Queens are aiming to become the third Nigerian club to qualify for the CAF Womenโs Champions League, following Rivers Angels and Bayelsa Queens, in this fourth edition of the tournament.
Delta Queens are the only team that failed to advance to the CAF Womenโs Champions League in 2023 despite the fact that the Qualifier was held in Edo State, Nigeria.
Edo Queens will face Burkina Fasoโs AO Etincelle on Saturday , August 17thย at Stade de la Paix, Bouake with only a draw enough to confirm then as group winner.
