Edo Queens head coach Moses Aduku has emphasised the importance of approaching every match at the CAF Women’s Champions League Morocco 2024 with the intensity of a cup final.
Aduku’s remarks came after his team’s impressive 3-0 victory over the Central Bank of Ethiopia FC in Casablanca on Sunday. This victory propelled them to the top of Group B on goal difference.
The debutants will face a stiff test against Egypt’s FC Masar on Wednesday, following the latter’s stunning 1-0 upset over reigning champions, Mamelodi Sundowns Women.
“We are grateful for the victory, but we recognise that the Ethiopian side was no pushover,” Aduku acknowledged. “We denied them the opportunity to play their game, and securing our first win was crucial.”
With a potential semi-final berth within reach, Aduku remains cautious, acknowledging the challenge posed by a confident FC Masar.
“Defeating the champions has undoubtedly boosted their morale, but we will not underestimate any team,” he stressed. “Every team here is a potential champion, and we must approach each game with the urgency of a cup final.”
The match will be played at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, 13 November, at the Stade Larbi Zaouli in Casablanca.
