The 2026 President Federation Cup (Women’s competition) reaches the quarter-final stage on Wednesday, June 18, 2026, with eight teams battling across multiple venues for a place in the semi-finals.

Quarter-Final Fixtures
Rivers Angels vs FC Robo Queens

This tie rekindles memories of a thrilling five-goal encounter during the Super Six, where Rivers Angels edged FC Robo Queens 3–2 in a closely contested match.
Both sides finished at the lower end of the Super Six standings with four points each and will be eager to reset their campaigns with a strong cup run.
Rivers Angels, coached by Tosan Blankson, remain one of the competition’s most experienced sides, having lifted the 2025 President Federation Cup in Lagos.
Heartland Queens vs Ibom Angels

Both Heartland Queens and Ibom Angels arrive at this stage without featuring in the recently concluded Super Six, making their quarter-final progression a notable achievement.

A victory here would offer a morale boost and renewed confidence heading into future NWFL Championship challenges.
Edo Queens vs Nasarawa Amazons
📍 Anyigba

This is one of the most anticipated ties of the round, with Nasarawa Amazons having narrowly defeated Edo Queens 1–0 in their last Super Six meeting.
Despite that result, both teams enter this clash with strong motivation—Edo Queens buoyed by their recent league triumph, and Nasarawa Amazons determined to go one step further after reaching last year’s final.
Edo Queens’ coach, Moses Aduku, will be aiming to guide his side toward a potential domestic double, while Nasarawa Amazons continue their pursuit of a long-awaited title.
