Ascent thump Lioness

Ascent Academy went riot over MDF Lioness at the Champions Stadium after handing them a heavy 0-3 defeat to secure a league double over them in a Lilongwe mini-derby on Saturday.

Mayamiko Mkandawire grabbed a brace as Fatima Lali got her fourth goal of the season to secure a big win and edge closer to secure the second spot in the League.

Head coach for Ascent Academy, Thom Nkolongo, hailed his players for their outstanding performance of the match.

"We played very well especially in the first half where we scored two goals but in the second half, Lioness began to attack more but after the third goal we closed them. Second position is possible as we just need a win to achieve it," said Nkolongo.

On his side, Captain John Kaputa of MDF Lioness dismissed that Champion Stadium is their home and said he has noted areas for improvement in the team.
