The Ghana champions started the game in the best possible way after breaking the deadlock early in the first half through Evelyn Badu.

The Western giants continue to dominate and should have scored more before the first half break, but failed to take their chances.

After the break, Hasaacas Ladies kept pushing and had a goal which was ruled out as offside. Evelyn Badu connected from a cross from the right.

The pressure paid off when Perpetual Agyekum scored from a corner kick to double the lead for the Ghanaians.

Malabo Kings halved the deficit but Hasaacas Ladies responded immediately after Evelyn Badu netted the third goal.
