DELTA Queens established a commanding performance to register their second win of the Nigeria Women Football League (NWFL) season, securing a 4-1 victory over Robo Queens of Lagos in a thrilling encounter at the Stephen Keshi Stadium, Asaba.
Despite a goalless first half, the home side exploded into life after the break, netting four goals in the second half to seal a comprehensive victory.
Delta Queens came out with renewed intensity and broke the deadlock early in the second half, quickly adding two more goals to establish a 3-0 lead.
Robo Queens found a moment of relief when they converted a penalty to reduce the deficit, but the home side remained relentless, adding a fourth goal in the dying minutes to put the result beyond doubt.
The emphatic victory delighted the home crowd, who cheered on their team throughout the contest. With this win, Delta Queens gained crucial momentum in their NWFL campaign and will look to build on it in the coming fixtures.
Meanwhile, Robo Queens will need to regroup and reassess their strategies as they seek to bounce back from the heavy defeat.
The Lagos-based side has shown promise in past games but will have to tighten their defense and improve their attacking coordination to stay competitive in the league.
Delta Queens’ performance proved that they are still a force to be reckoned with in the NWFL this season. As the competition progresses, all eyes will be on them to see if they can maintain this level of excellence.
