The Women’s FA Cup has been whittled down to the last 16 following an action-packed Round of 32 that delivered emphatic victories, tight contests, and derby drama across the country as heavyweight sides asserted their dominance.
Ampem Darkoa Ladies stole the headlines with the most commanding performance of the round, recording a staggering 13–0 win over Sung Shining Ladies to underline their attacking firepower and title ambitions. Army Ladies also marched on confidently, dispatching Valued Girls 3–1 to book their place in the next stage.
Hasaacas Ladies continued their impressive run with a convincing 4–1 victory against Essiam Socrates, while Supreme Ladies eased past Northern Ladies with a comfortable 3–0 win to progress. Epiphany Warriors were equally ruthless, sweeping aside Mepe Peace Ladies 6–0 in one of the round’s standout displays.
Elsewhere, Akosombo Ladies secured a solid 2–0 win over Anlo Ladies, while Gyagba Ladies edged Fosu Royal Ladies 1–0 in a closely fought encounter. Samartex Ladies advanced automatically after Wisdom Ladies failed to honour their fixture.
There were also narrow wins and strong away performances, with Tamale Super Ladies beating Anfaani Ladies 2–1, FC Savannah edging Fabulous Ladies 1–0, and Bolga Sharp Arrows seeing off WA All Stars Ladies 2–0. Dreamz Ladies impressed on the road, overpowering Nasara Ladies 5–1 to seal qualification.
Arm of God Ladies claimed a hard-earned 2–1 victory over Northern City Ladies, while Rootz Sistaz delivered a statement performance with a 4–1 win against Ladystrikers. Sissamba Ladies completed the list of qualifiers after a disciplined 2–0 triumph over Soccer Intellectuals.
One of the most talked-about matches of the round took place at the Auntie-Aku AstroTurf, where Jonina Ladies edged Cabfix Ladies 2–1 in a fiercely contested local derby. Despite the defeat, Cabfix earned plaudits for becoming the first team to score against Jonina this season, ending their perfect defensive run across all competitions, although Jonina’s league clean-sheet record remains intact.
With the Round of 32 concluded, attention now turns to the next stage of the competition, as the remaining teams continue their quest for Women’s FA Cup glory and a place in the final.
