Saturday’s FKF Women’s Cup Round of 16 wasn’t without its own fair of upsets as the two top sides in the Women’s Premier League Gaspo and Vihiga Queens were ousted from the cup tourney after failing to dispatch their opponents in normal time before falling in the round of post-match spot kicks.Gaspo took the lead in the 25th minute through Wambui Mukutiza before Melon Mulindi restored parity for the visitors 15 minutes before the break to take the tie into penalties – where Ulinzi Starlets came out 5-4 winners to book their spot in the Cup quarter-finals.##NAJAVA_MECA_7180486##A similar fate befell WPL second placed side Vihiga Queens at the Mumias Complex Grounds as they lost 5-6 on penalties to KISPED Queens after seeing out a barren draw in the afternoon fixture.Elsewhere, at the Ruaraka Grounds, Ulinzi Starlets were on a rampage as they registered an 18-0 victory over visiting Soccer Sister.Fasila Adhiambo led the way for Ulinzi with five goals – four coming in the first half- with the duo of Lavendah Akinyi and Sofia Adhiambo scoring four goals each.Joan Naututu and Lanoline Owino both scored hattricks to wrap up the biggest victory of the day for the defending champions.We exit the #fkfwomenscup competition.
