    The semi final matches of this year’s men Federation Cup competition will take place on the 25th of September  and 2nd of October 2016. Crown FC of Ogbomosho and FC Ifeanyi Ubah will

    battle in the first semi final at the Ahmadu Bello Stadium, Kaduna on Sunday, 25th September while 2014 champions, Enyimba FC will take on Nasarawa United at the Adamasingba Stadium, Ibadan on Sunday October 2.

    Crown FC Media Manager,  Oyekunle Oyeleye in a chat with Footyaler.com  confirmed that the Ajilete Boys are confident regardless of the challenges ahead.

    Crown FC reaching its highest level in the Federation Cup

    Definitely yes, this is unprecedented in the annals of the Club as far as Federation Cup is concerned, with the same pace of commitment invested since the commencement of the League and preliminary stages of the Federation cup we shall get there and achieve the trophy

    The club's Technical Adviser's philosophy 

    Well, i have always said this everywhere about the Club's Technical Manager, Fatai Osho, is a clear-headed young man with passion for greatness. Yes he brought a style of play a bit different from what Crown FC normally play- it's a unique tiki-taka style of play and sincerely it has actually lifted the tempo of play at the Club. Though it cost the Management a lot to achieve because the team may have to train on a different turf aside the ones around and the club's facility but because the Management too had a mandate to succed we didn't bulge in as much as his advice would eventually bring result.

    So that's how we were able to come this far with that pattern. Besides, the Technical Adviser knows what he wants to do with the Club ambition.

    Respect for FC Ifeanyi Ubah

    FC Ifeanyi Ubah is a good side, again the Club campaigns in the Elite division and we do respect them just as any other Club that is the likes of Kano Pillars, Enyimba, Prime FC, FC Ebeid or even Tiger FC in Ibadan because in the Federation Cup especially you underrate at your own peril. But of course Crown FC campaigns in the second division and we defeated Niger Tornadoes, Enigu Rangers and Wikki Tourist enroute the semis so why should the Millionaire Club be different all things being equal?

    What I'm trying to say here is that; we respect FCIU but they are simply vulnerable as our earlier opponents to reach this level.

    Crown FC isn't scared of any team

    Crown cannot be scared of any team on the field of play except any other powers outside the pitch and such powers should be in the presence of all stake holders.

    Complains of poor officiating in the Federation Cup involving FC Ifeanyi Ubah

    Well, as for barrage of poor officiating recorded so far in the tournament, it's for the NFF to put up measure to curb such acts because the world is looking at us and our modus operandi in handling football matters.

    This is the oldest Tournament in Nigeria and it should be our pride, it should be handled in such a way that foreign investors and sponsors can invest in it. Besides all media chiefs have a role to play in salvaging the tournament to make it Marketable, the organizers of the tournament  are expected to key into the CHANGE agenda of the government by doing the right thing at the right time. Poor officiating is an anathema  to football development, that's why we see our representatives crashing early on the continent whenever they feature. This year's federation Cup can be used as a test-template and an opportunity to grow our own result-oriented football.

     However, the management Of Crown still repose a great confidence in the organizers of the Tournament and every stakeholder in Nigeria football.
