Bayelsa Queens cruised to a 2-0 victory over Ekiti Queens to reclaim pole position in NWFL Group A on Wednesday.
Bankole Sofiat and Delight Isaac gave the Prosperity Girls a commanding win.
Bayelsa Queens were glad to get back to winning ways after a 3-1 loss to Heartland Queens of Owerri last week.
Bankole Sofiat put Bayelsa Queens ahead in the first half after a goal-mouth scramble in the 24th minute, al all effort to get a second goal proved abortive as Ekiti Queens defended well to end the first half one-nil.
On resumption for the second half, Bayelsa Queens came all out attacking Ekiti Queens and it paid off in the 55th minute when Delight Isaac out ran the defenders of Ekiti Queens to calmly slot home which proved to be the winner.
After the game, Coach Whyte Ogbonda said he was impressed with the performance of the team.
“Yes, I’m happy today because the team played to the instructions given to them. And you know after our last game that we lost, the players were not happy and they gave their all today and we are happy with their performance”, Coach Whyte said.
“It’s a good thing that we won today, we needed more goals, but since it did not come, what is paramount for now is the 3 points and that is the most important thing, we’re happy we got it”, Coach Whyte Ogbonda added.
