by Ayrton Galea - 17th April 2018

Birkirkara FC Women's Team made sure to head into next week's title showdown against Hibernians FC with a one-point advantage, as they came from behind to defeat Mgarr United FC with a 3-1 score.

Mgarr United surged ahead after just three minutes thanks to Rebecca D'Agostino. However, Agostino's goal served as a wake-up call for the Stripes who turned the score in their favour in the following ten minutes thanks to a goal each by Tracy Teuma and Stephania Farrugia.

The Stripes made sure of the three precious points four minutes from time when they scored the third goal. A long ball by Farrugia in the path of Veronique Mifsud saw the latter anticipating the on-rushing goalkeeper and placed the ball at the back of the net.

BIRKIRKARA: Janice Xuereb, Gabriella Zahra, Ann-Marie Said, Kim Parnis, Stephania Farrugia, Samantha Zarb, Tracy Teuma, Alishia Sultana, Raina Giusti, Veronique Mifsud (88' Joselene Gafa), Jelena Sakic.

Yellow Cards: 75' Gabriella Zahra (Birkirkara).

Scorers: 6' Tracy Teuma, 13' Stephania Farrugia, 86' Veronique Mifsud (Birkirkara), 3' Rebecca D'Agostino (Mgarr United).
