This clash is nothing short of a heavyweight contest. Natt Boys FC, fresh from their dramatic 8–6 penalty shootout, triumph over Emaljus FC, head into the semi-final brimming with belief. Their attacking flair and never-say-die spirit make them a dangerous opponent.

But standing in their way is Ikorodu City FC, a side that has looked ruthless and composed throughout the tournament. Their 2–0 victory over Community Gunners FC in the quarter-finals was a statement of intent. With solid defence, clinical finishing, and tournament experience, Ikorodu City will test Natt Boys’ resilience to the limit.

This encounter promises to be a battle of firepower and composure—a true test of nerves under pressure.

 *Dosu Joseph FC vs. ISAGT Athletics* 


The second semi-final is a classic storyline of giant-killers meeting rising giants. Dosu Joseph FC stunned the home boys Inspire Sports Academy with a 1–0 upset in the quarter-finals in front of their home teeming fans, proving their ability to defy expectations. With determination and grit, they have built momentum as the underdog story of the tournament.


Their opponents, ISAGT Athletics, showed resilience and tactical maturity in their 2–1 victory over Vinmo Energy FC. Known for their high-energy style and never-say-die attitude, ISAGT have become one of the most unpredictable sides in the competition.

This showdown is set to be explosive, with Dosu Joseph hungry to extend their fairytale run and ISAGT aiming to cement their rise as a new grassroots powerhouse.
