NWL: Intellectuals shock Police

Visiting Soccer Intellectuals yesterday defeated Police Ladies 1-0 in their week-three National Women’s Premier League game played at the McDan La Town Park.

Moussirietou Adina-Akpo got the only goal of the game in the 11th minute.

After bowing 3-1 to Berry Ladies in their match day-two game, Soccer Intellectuals came into the game with wounded hearts and chased their hosts for every ball.

It came as no fluke when tormentor-in-chief Moussirietou Adina-Akpo latched onto a through ball behind the box and volleyed it past goalkeeper Nana Ama Asantewaa in post for Police.

Fifteen minutes later, the Police Ladies were awarded a penalty. However, Elizabeth Dokyi who stepped up for the dead-ball had her effort saved by Selina Abalansa Amulisie in post for the visitors.

Back from recess, Police lifted up their game in a bid to grab the equaliser, but the visitors stood resolute to keep them at bay.
