Remo Stars Ladies continued their fine run with a solid 1-0 victory over Abia Angels, courtesy of Aishat Animashaun’s 25th-minute strike.

In Benin City, Edo Queens claimed a narrow 1-0 win against Heartland Queens, with Atume Doosuur scoring in the 15th minute to hand the reigning champions another important result.

There was no separating Delta Queens and Sunshine Queens, who played out a 0-0 draw, despite both teams pushing for a late winner.

The most dramatic moment of the day came in Ado-Ekiti, where Ekiti Queens held Adamawa Queens to a 1-1 draw. Adamawa took the lead in the 55th minute through Mary Sunday, but the hosts rescued a point deep into stoppage time after Favour Godwin scored an own goal in the 90+2 minute.
