Edo Queens Brace for Super Six Pressure as Coach Aduku Eyes Title Defense

As the countdown begins for the highly anticipated NWFL Super Six playoff tournament, Edo Queens head coach Moses Aduku has declared that his side is prepared for the pressure that comes with being the defending champions.

Following a dominant regular season — winning 11 out of 14 matches, drawing two, and losing just once — the Benin-based outfit enters the Super Six as a formidable contender. But with that success comes increased scrutiny.

“We’ve had a great regular season. Now, the real battle begins,” Aduku said during a press briefing.
“We know that as defending champions, the spotlight will be on us. Everyone will want to pull us down. But we are ready — the players are focused, and our mindset is to retain the cup.”

Edo Queens are not just domestic heavyweights; they’ve also proven their mettle on the continental stage, reaching the semi-finals of the CAF Women’s Champions League last season — a feat that has further solidified their reputation.

The Super Six won't just test tactics; it will test mental strength, depth, and belief. And as teams like Rivers Angels, Bayelsa Queens, and Nasarawa Amazons gear up to snatch the crown, fans are in for a fiery showdown.

📍The big question remains: Can Edo Queens defend their title and write their name in golden letters again?
