Relegated Nations FC eye first MTN FA Cup trophy ahead of final against Dreams FC

Nations FC will attempt to secure the first MTN FA Cup trophy in the club’s history when they face Dreams FC in Sunday’s final.

The Abrankese-based side has enjoyed a remarkable cup run despite suffering relegation from the Ghana Premier League at the end of the 2025/26 league season.

While their league campaign ended in disappointment, Nations FC now have the opportunity to finish the season on a historic high with silverware.

Nations FC booked their place in the MTN FA Cup final for the very first time after a series of impressive performances throughout the competition.

Their journey began with a victory over Division One League Zone Two side Ebony FC in the Round of 64 before eliminating AshantiGold SC, the reigning champions of Zone Two.

They later defeated Ghana Premier League side Swedru All Blacks 2-1 before edging past Berekum Chelsea on penalties in the quarter finals.

A semi-final victory against Aduana FC in Swedru eventually sealed their place in the final, where they will now battle Dreams FC.

The 2026 MTN FA Cup final between Nations FC and Dreams FC is scheduled for Sunday, May 31, at the University of Ghana Stadium.

While Dreams FC are chasing a second FA Cup trophy, Nations FC are aiming for what will be a historic first.
