Honey Badgers continued their perfect run in the 2024/25 NWFL Championship, securing their second victory of the campaign with a tense win over Fortress Ladies, who are still searching for their first win. The match showcased Honey Badgers' resilience and tactical prowess as they maintained their unbeaten streak.
In a dramatic start to the game, Fortress Ladies fell behind early, conceding a goal in just the 3rd minute. This goal was one of the quickest scored in the competition so far, putting Honey Badgers in an advantageous position. Despite this early setback, Fortress Ladies managed to equalize just four minutes later. A precise low cross found their striker, who calmly finished to restore balance and offer a glimmer of hope to their supporters.
As the match progressed into the second half, both teams continued to battle for dominance. Honey Badgers intensified their efforts, pushing forward and looking to break the deadlock. Their persistence paid off a few minutes after the second half began when they scored a decisive goal. This goal proved to be the game-winner, as Honey Badgers managed to hold onto their lead and secure a 2-1 victory.
This latest win follows a convincing 4-2 victory that Honey Badgers secured against Dreamstar Ladies just the day before. With a total of six goals scored across their last two matches and only three conceded, Honey Badgers are clearly in formidable form and demonstrating their strength in the league.
In contrast, Fortress Ladies are still struggling to find their footing this season. Although they have earned a point from a recent draw against Kwara Ladies, their overall performance has yet to yield a victory. The team remains in search of their first win, which has eluded them thus far in the campaign.
Looking ahead, the final game of this round will be held at the U.J. Eusene Stadium, where Dreamstar Ladies will face Kwara Ladies. This match could potentially alter the standings and provide critical points as the teams continue to vie for promotion and better positions in the league.
As the season progresses, both Honey Badgers and Fortress Ladies will be looking to adjust their strategies and performances. Honey Badgers aim to maintain their perfect run and consolidate their position at the top, while Fortress Ladies will be striving to break their winless streak and make a push for improvement in their upcoming fixtures.
