Sunshine Queens Breaks City Doves Hearts

Sunshine Queens handed debutants Capital City Doves a baptism of fire following a 2-1 victory in Abuja on Sunday.


Former FC Robo and Rivers Angels starlet Aminat Yakubu was a phobia to the hosts as she tore their back-four apart with her direct approach and silky skills.

Shola Oyewusi set the away team into early excitement at the Area 3 Pitch when she rifled in a shot after great work from Yakubu in the 23rd minute.

Ten minutes later, Capital City Doves drew level through Helen Obinna but Patience Agbokhade ensured that the away side picked all three points when she scored the winner after 41 minutes.
