Nigerian Duo Babajide, Oladipo Clinch Serie A Femminile Title With Roma

In a thrilling finale to the 2025/26 Serie A Femminile season, AS Roma secured their third league title in four years, defeating Ternana 2–0 on the final day.

The victory was especially significant for Nigerian Super Falcons stars Rinsola Babajide and Shukurat Oladipo, who lifted their first major trophy with the Rome-based club.

The decisive goals came from Italian midfielder Manuela Giugliano, who netted a brace to seal the win for Le Giallorosse. Her first-half strike set the tone, and a composed second-half finish ensured Roma’s dominance was never in doubt.

The result not only crowned Roma champions but also extended their remarkable run of success in Italian women’s football.

For Babajide and Oladipo, the title marks a career milestone. Babajide, a dynamic winger, has made nine league appearances this season, contributing three assists and proving a constant threat down the flank. Oladipo, a versatile midfielder, has been more regularly deployed, featuring in 16 league matches and showcasing her tireless work rate and tactical discipline.

Roma’s season, however, is far from over. The team now sets its sights on completing a domestic double when they face arch-rivals Juventus in the Coppa Italia Femminile final on May 24. A win there would cap a perfect campaign and further cement Roma’s status as Italy’s premier women’s football powerhouse.

The Scudetto triumph also underscores the growing influence of Nigerian talent in European women’s football. With Babajide and Oladipo now tasting league glory, the Super Falcons continue to produce players capable of shining on the biggest stages.

As Roma celebrates its third title in four years, the Nigerian duo will savor every moment and look ahead to even more silverware later this month.
