Wanyonyi would bag her brace just seventeen minutes minutes in after her thunderbolt of an effort riffled into the back of the net for Queen’s fourth.Sensing danger, Yei’s head coach opted for a goalkeeper change on the 20th minute as Annet Kawa’s short height proved to be costly. Nawal Majok brought on to replace her in trying to prevent further damage.##EDITORS_CHOICE##After a couple of impressive saves minutes after coming, there is nothing the new custodian could do as Maurine also found her second in the match. Wanyonyi’s cut back pass into the area only needing redirection into the back of the net.Six minutes before the break, Jentrix Shikangwa scored the pick of the bunch with a brilliantly worked curling effort into the top right corner as Queens moved into the running riot territory with the scores.While the 2019 Kenya Women Premier League Champions were cruising in the opening half, the same could not be said for Joint Stars who were unable to even get ahold of the ball, leave alone creating any chances in front of goal as they trailed by six goals at the half time interval.The second half’s performance was akin to the first half display as Vihiga United heaped even more pressure in consolidating their first win of the Champions League qualifiers.FT Vihiga Queens Football CLUB 11 : Yei Joint Stars Fc 0On to the next task 💪We are #VihigaQueens#legacymakers#cecafa2021— Vihiga Queens FC (@Vihigaqueens) September 1, 2021 An ever lively Engesha found her second in the 50th minute with a well placed header into the bottom corner before Maurine fed Wanyonyi for her hat trick in the 65th minute with the game’s eighth goal.Three minutes later, Maurine followed suit in ensuring she carries the match ball home as she scored her third with an easy tap in after the Yei keeper spilled an earlier attempted shot on goal.With twenty minutes left on the clock, Shikangwa made it a decade of goals with a long range thunderous drive that gave the keeper absolutely no chance.With minutes left before the referee’s full time whistle, Wanyonyi still had time for a fourth as she took the goal count to a final score of eleven to no response
