WPL: Bunyore down 10-Woman Wadadia in dramatic second leg opener

A 20th minute red card for Wadadia’s shot stopper in their clash away to Bunyore Starlets proved a game changer for the hosts who went on to win the match 3-0. A highly dramatic match that saw the visitors finish the match with a player between the posts with Wadadia’s two keepers out, it was still sweet revenge for the hosts who suffered a 6-0 defeat in their first ever top tier match against Wadadia. #KWPL 🇰🇪 Kenya Women’s Premier League@MundialesyCopas @JueganEllas @WSoccerPlayers @WorldWSoccer @JWsports1 @CephasTendereza @firew_asrat @samueloahmadu @Oyediji_SeunResult Bunyore Starlets 3 Wadadia 0Prisca Ambale (Pen).Bracksides Itambe.Dorcus Anyango.— karl (@karlyboy71) April 2, 2022 Prisca Ambale opened the scoring from the spot, a penalty that was awarded following a reckless tackle from Wadadia’s shot stopper that led to her seeing red. Bracksides Itambe and Dorcus Anyango handed Bunyore the second and third much to the excitement of the side and with head coach Daniel Arunga admitting they needed all the points to escape the relegation zone. “It was a tough match. Wadadia dominated the first 20 minutes but after being reduced to ten on the pitch, my players took full advantage of the advantage and pushed for the win we needed. There was determination to win despite all the drama. With this victory, the second leg has started on a high and we will be looking to build on this momentum going forward,” said Arunga. The tactician remains hopeful that the injuries they have picked in today’s match will be managed and said players be available for theor away trip to Thika. “Juliana Kaupe had to get a few stitches after colliding with Wadadia’s second keeper. The two had to be rushed to hospital. We picked a few other knocks too but by Monday we will have accessed said players as we begin preparations for the match against Thika Queens,” Arunga added.
