Ilechukwu targets President Federation Cup glory with Rangers

Rangers’ technical adviser, Fidelis Ilechukwu, is optimistic his side can win the 2026 President Federation Cup.

Winning Nigeria’s oldest football competition will guarantee a return to the continent for the Flying Antelopes.

Rangers zoomed into the semi-finals of the competition after a hard-earned 1-0 victory over Bendel Insurance at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena, Onikan, Lagos, on Wednesday.

“We’ve got the character, the capacity, the mentality, and we’ve also got the record. What I think we need to do is look at some of our players who have serious injuries, find out what to do, and then prepare for the next game, which I know is going to be very tough,” Ilechukwu declared.

“And for now, nobody can boast that he’s going to win the Federation Cup.”

The Enugu club will face Plateau United in the last four.

Rangers have won the President Federation Cup five times in the past.
