Home » 2024/2025 Liberia Football Season Recap: A Year of Dominance and Destiny
As the 2024/2025 Liberia football season concludes, four teams have etched their names into national history. From the LFA First Division to the Orange Cup, this campaign delivered emotional storylines, thrilling finales, and a resurgence of continental ambition.
These champions will represent Liberia in the CAF competitions, carrying with them the hopes of a football-loving nation.
FC Fassell’s triumphant campaign was no coincidence—it was carefully engineered. Backed by club owner Anthony Cassell Kouh, the team underwent a preseason camp in Egypt that fostered unity and tactical depth.
On April 10, Fassell sealed the LFA First Division title with a decisive 4-2 win over Invincible Eleven, featuring a brace from Mark Yallah and contributions from Koon and Yancy. Despite a loss on the final day, the crown was already theirs.
“We are reaping what we sowed,” said Kouh, referring to his investment strategy.
The club is now focused on bolstering its squad for CAF Champions League qualification, especially targeting a top striker—possibly from Europe’s elite leagues.
Black Man Warrior FC’s Orange Cup win was redemption personified. In a dramatic final at the Samuel Kanyon Doe Sports Complex, they defeated LISCR FC 3-1 on penalties following a 1-1 draw.
Coach Sam Chebli, formerly dismissed by LISCR, led his new team to poetic justice. The match included two disallowed goals for Black Man Warrior, adding to the emotional tension.
“It was never a surprise,” said captain Darius Payne. “We trained for this.”
Their victory marks a spiritual and strategic comeback, earning them a spot in CAF’s knockout rounds and setting a new standard for grit and resilience in Liberian football.
Determine Girls continue to redefine dominance. In the 2024/2025 Liberia football season, they captured both the Upper Women’s Division League and the Orange Cup, marking their fifth straight league title.
Their final-day 3-0 victory over World Girls was the exclamation point on a campaign that also saw a crushing 7-1 win against Kneeling Warriors—securing the league crown three games early.
“They are the standard,” said an LFA official. “Liberia’s best chance in the CAF Women’s Champions League.”
Next stop: WAFU Zone A qualifiers in Thies, Senegal. Owner Kouh is planning an international training camp—possibly in Europe or the Middle East—mirroring the strategy that propelled FC Fassell to success.
In one of the most inspiring stories of the 2024/2025 season, Wologizi FC won the LFA Second Division and secured promotion, despite a 3-0 loss on the final day.
Their campaign peaked with a 7-1 thrashing of Mighty Enforcers, clinching promotion weeks early. Coach Jasper Benfelix, once dismissed after a poor stint with Nimba Kwado, found redemption through determination.
“They called me a failure. I call this vindication,” he told FrontPage Africa.
But their season wasn’t without controversy. Jubilee FC, who finished second, were relegated due to forged documents and unpaid fines, raising questions about football governance in Liberia.
With clubs preparing for continental competition, expectations are high. Yet so is realism. Liberia’s clubs will face seasoned opponents across Africa, testing their tactical depth and mental endurance.
This CAF-bound cohort includes:
Liberia’s strategy is changing—teams are investing in international training, early preparation, and player development. As a result, hopes are rising that this new generation can make meaningful progress on the continental stage.
“This is more than sport,” said an LFA representative. “It’s about pride, identity, and proving Liberia belongs.”
