Fresh from their 1-0 win against Naija Ratels in Abuja on Friday 13th of October, 2023 to clinch the Sixth edition of the Sheroes Cup, Edo Queens Coach Moses Aduku have reiterated his team’s desire of winning this season’s Nigeria Women Football League Competition.

Coach Aduku who won the trophy with his former employers Bayelsa Queens have stated that his team will make sure that this season does not pass them by, that is by taking it a game at a time.

“We’re going to make sure that this season do not pass us by, but we’re going to take it one game at a time”.

He said this during an exclusive chat with Made in Africa Sport after defeating the host team Naija Ratels by a lone goal to reclaim the trophy.

Recall that Edo Queens were the inaugural winners of the competition formally known as the “Flying Officers Cup” in 2019.

When quizzed on the quality of the preseason competition, Coach Aduku asserted that the standard of the competition was very good as it gave the participating teams the chance to assess their respective squads before the commencement of the league.
