Bayelsa Queens salvaged something from a seemingly-disappointing CAF Women’s Champions League by finishing with a 1-0 win over Simba Queens

In the match played at the Stade Moulay Hassan in Rabat, a second half strike from Juliet Sunday was all the Yenagoa-based side required to beat their East African opponents.

Bayelsa Queens had a brighter start to the match as Glory Edet’s long-range effort and Etim Edidiong’s header inside the opening 10 minutes missed their target. Simba Queens, however, recovered from the early pressure as they threatened through the efforts of Asha Djafari and Opah Clement.The two clubs resumed the contest with an end-to-end battle until Juliet Sunday eventually broke the deadlock off a cross from Mercy Itimi in the 70th minute.But Clement’s powerful brilliant effort from the edge was turned over the bar by goalkeeper Bawou Gabrielle 10 minutes later.

In the closing stages, Bayelsa Queens almost added the second goal through substitute Chinyere Igbomalu.Meanwhile, goalkeeper Bawou Gabrielle won her second Woman of the Match accolade in the tournament. This followed her brilliant goalkeeping to ensure Bayelsa Queens celebrate winning the bronze medals in their maiden appearance.
