GPF’s Annalisa Vincent responded with an impressive equalizer in the 36th minute, tying the score at 1-1 before the first half concluded. The competitive spirit intensified as both sides fiercely vied for an advantage, yet despite numerous attempts, the scoreline remained unchanged by halftime.
Jalade Trim, a former standout from Fruta Conquerors FC, re-entered the field after halftime, amplifying GDF’s lead with a second goal in the 52nd minute. This goal widened the gap, firmly placing victory beyond the grasp of the Police Women.
