[bet9ja.com](https://register.bet9ja.com/?btag=yohaig&promocode=yohaig)<br>Moses Aduku, head coach of Edo Queens FC, has shifted his focus to the upcoming Federation Cup semi-final against [Nasarawa Amazons](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/category/football-tactics-and-analysis/) following a frustrating run in the recently concluded NWFL Super-6 tournament.

<br>After finishing as champions in the 2024 edition, Edo Queens failed to replicate their success this year. Their campaign got off to a poor start with a loss to Remo Ladies and never recovered. Despite the setback, Aduku remains optimistic about his team’s future and believes the Federation Cup offers a vital chance for redemption.
<br>
<br>"We couldn’t get what we wanted in the Super-6, but that’s football," he told reporters. "We’ll now go out to face Nasarawa Amazons in the semi-final and hope to do better. That’s the focus."

<br>The semi-final match is scheduled for Saturday in Ayungba, Kogi State just days after the team’s exit from the Super-6. Aduku dismissed doubts about Edo Queens’ chances in the Federation Cup due to their league struggles, insisting that different often produce different results.
<br>
<br>"Tournaments are unique. Sometimes you start slowly and end strong. Other times it’s the opposite," he said. "The key is continued effort. That’s what we’re working on."
<br>
<br>Aduku admitted that their early stumble in the Super-6 cost them a shot at retaining the title they won in Enugu last year. "Our start wasn’t good. Unfortunately, we couldn’t complete the job this time," he added.
<br>
<br>Now, all eyes are on Edo Queens as they aim to [salvage](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/category/news/national-team-news/) their season with a shot at Federation Cup glory.

<br>In football, as in life, setbacks are inevitable — but what defines a great team is not how hard they fall, but how quickly and [purposefully](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/player-profiles/anaemena-celebrates-third-npfl-title-after-remo-stars-landmark-victory/) they rise. Edo Queens, under Moses Aduku’s measured leadership, are striving to do just that.
<br>
<br>Their underwhelming performance in the NWFL Super-6 might have [disappointed](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/category/womens-football/) fans, but it should not define them. What matters now is how they respond. And we believe that Aduku is setting the right tone acknowledge the mistakes, but don’t dwell on them. Refocus. Regroup. Redeem.

<br>A semi-final clash against Nasarawa Amazons is no walk in the park, but it’s also not an unwinnable tie. With players hungry to prove a point and a coach unwilling to let the past cloud their future, Edo Queens could turn disappointment into determination.
<br>
<br>Let’s remember this is the same team that triumphed in 2024. The same players who know how to grind out wins. The Federation Cup offers a new canvas, and the Queens still have the brush in hand.
<br>
<br>It’s time to paint a new ending to this season one filled with fight, flair, and the fearless spirit that made them champions in the first place.
