Federation Cup: Lagos, Abuja to host semi-final games
The Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, has announced venues for the 2025 men’s President Federation Cup.
Bwari Stadium, Abuja, will host semi-final encounter between Abakaliki FC and Ikorodu City. The all-NPFL encounter between Kwara United and Enugu Rangers will hold at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena, Onikan, Lagos.
The two matches will be played on Wednesday, May 21. The winner of the President Federation Cup will represent Nigeria in next season’s CAF Confederation Cup, alongside the third-placed team in the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL).
El-kanemi Warriors won Nigeria’s oldest football competition last year.
Among the three NPFL clubs remaining in the competition, Ikorodu City have been the most impressive and certainly a contender for team of the season award. The Oga Boys are fourth in the table, while Enugu Rangers lie in eighth position in the log.
Kwara United are the lowest-placed team in the Nigerian topflight so far this term in 12th place.
