Naija Ratels have sealed the final spot in the 2024/25 Nigeria Women Football League (NWFL) Premiership Super Six Playoffs following a goalless draw against Bayelsa Queens on the final Matchday of the regular season.
The result, secured at home on Wednesday, was all the Ratels needed to book their place in the title-deciding tournament.
They now join defending champions Edo Queens, Remo Stars Ladies, Nasarawa Amazons, Bayelsa Queens, and Rivers Angels in the highly anticipated Super Six, scheduled to take place in Ikenne from May 8 to 17, 2025.
It marks Naija Ratels’ second appearance in the Playoffs since making their top-flight debut in 2022.
Meanwhile, FC Robo Queens were left heartbroken despite a 2-1 win over Delta Queens in Lagos.
An own goal from Joy Falegan and a strike from Mariam Yahaya gave the hosts the edge, while Priscilla Omeje found the net for the visitors.
However, the result proved insufficient, as Robo Queens finished with 22 points—just one behind Naija Ratels, who clinched the sixth and final qualification spot.
Elsewhere, several teams wrapped up their regular season campaigns in style.
In Owerri, a brace from Faith Samson fired Heartland Queens to a 2-1 victory over Nasarawa Amazons, who grabbed a consolation through Kesiena Ojiyovwi.
In Ikenne, Playoffs host Remo Stars Ladies sent a strong message with a commanding 5-0 rout of Dannaz Ladies.
