 Kwara United Crowned 2025 President Federation Cup Champions After Dramatic Shootout Victory

Kwara United Crowned 2025 President Federation Cup Champions After Dramatic Shootout Victory

In what will be remembered as one of the most hard-fought Federation Cup finals in recent memory, Kwara United emerged victorious on Sunday night, clinching their first-ever President Federation Cup title after a nerve-wracking 4-3 penalty shootout win over Abakaliki FC.

The epic showdown, held at a buzzing venue packed with passionate supporters, saw no goals in regulation time, but plenty of heart, hustle, and high drama. Despite several close calls, both sides failed to find the back of the net during the 90 minutes of regulation play.

Tunde Sanni’s Kwara United, popularly known as the Harmony Boys, created more scoring opportunities but couldn’t capitalize, as a mixture of nerves and wasteful finishing kept the scoreboard blank. Their persistence paid off during the penalties, however, as they coolly slotted home four of their five spot-kicks, while Abakaliki FC missed two of theirs.

👏 Abakaliki FC, who recently suffered relegation to the Nationwide League, earned the respect of many with their spirited performance. Their journey to the final, against all odds, was nothing short of inspirational — a reminder that football isn’t always about league rankings but about passion, grit, and belief.

💬 A Sweet Victory with a Sour Undercurrent

This triumph is not just a trophy win for Kwara United — it's a bold statement. For years, they've battled inconsistency, heartbreak, and near misses. Today, they’ve rewritten their history. This cup win should ignite a new era for the Harmony Boys — one built on belief, development, and chasing continental dreams.

For Abakaliki FC, the loss is painful, but their run in the tournament shows there’s more to come. Relegation may sting, but with such resilience on display, their bounce-back story might just begin now.
