Enabulele Extols Edo Queens’ 4-1 Victory Over Bayelsa Queens

It was a remarkable outing for Edo Queens Football Club as they kicked off the second round of the season with a resounding 4–1 victory over Bayelsa Queens at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium on Wednesday in Benin City during Match day 10 of the Nigeria Women Football League (NWFL).
The emphatic win drew praise from the Executive Chairman of the Edo State Sports Commission, Amadin Desmond Enabulele, who described the performance as a strong statement of intent from the Edo-based side as the league intensified.
In a statement issued by his Media Aide, Edoko Wilson Edoko, Enabulele highlighted that the team’s dominant display reflected the strength and confidence of the squad, which netted four goals in the first half of the match.
“This is a defining moment that demonstrates the determination, discipline, and fighting spirit of Edo Queens,” Enabulele stated. “The players showed great character and tactical discipline, and it is encouraging to see them respond so positively at the start of the second round.”
Goals from Doosuur Atune in the 4th and 9th minutes, coupled with a brilliant brace from Chioma Moses in the 13th and 30th minutes, overwhelmed the defending champions and set the tone for a memorable afternoon in Benin City.
The earlier fixture this season had produced one of the most thrilling encounters of the campaign, with the Prosperity Girls edging a dramatic 3–2 victory. However, the convincing response by Edo Queens in this return leg underscored their determination to remain firmly in contention for a place in the Super Six.
Enabulele commended the players and technical crew for their commitment and urged them to maintain the momentum.
“I congratulate the players, coaches, and management of Edo Queens for this impressive victory. Their dedication continues to make Edo State proud. I encourage them to remain focused, work harder, and sustain this winning mentality as they push for qualification for the Super Six,” he added.
The victory moved Edo Queens up to 21 points on the league table, strengthening their campaign in the ongoing season.
Enabulele also reaffirmed the commitment of the Edo State government to the growth and development of sports, noting that continued support would further motivate athletes to achieve greater success.
“Edo Queens have once again shown the beauty of football and the strength of Edo sports. We are proud of them, and we believe even greater victories lie ahead,” he concluded.
