Football fans in Gwagwalada are in for a thrilling spectacle on Sunday, 14 December 2025, as Ejiwumi FC and Sheikhandam FC clash in the grand finale of the 20th edition of the Gwagwalada Football League. The matchup rekindles one of the fiercest rivalries in the local football scene, setting the stage for a highly anticipated repeat of last year’s final.

 

The two sides last met at this stage in 2024, where Ejiwumi FC stamped their dominance with a commanding 3–1 victory, etching their name boldly in the league’s history. This year, however, brings a renewed sense of determination, growth, and unfinished business for both teams.

 

Sheikhandam FC return to the final with renewed fire, their journey characterized by consistency and dazzling form throughout the league. Their 3–1 semi-final triumph over NIMMA FC was a statement performance, sending a clear message to fans and rivals alike that they are fully prepared to reclaim glory.

 

Ejiwumi FC, the defending champions, took a tougher route to the final. Their hard-fought 1–0 victory over Medical Strikers JNR showcased grit, resilience, and the mentality of a team that understands what it takes to win. After a slow start to the league campaign, Ejiwumi regained momentum and once again positioned themselves as the team to beat in Gwagwalada football.

 

With history, pride, and championship glory on the line, the 2025 final promises to deliver fireworks. Fans can expect a fierce battle as Sheikhandam look for redemption, while Ejiwumi aim to defend their crown and reinforce their dominance in one of the FCT’s most competitive local leagues.
