Kampala Queens needed to dig deep to overcome a resilient Makerere University WFC as the two teams faced off on Saturday in Lugogo.
The University side took an early lead through captain Josephine Ndagire, who scored in the 3rd minute to send panic to the hosts.
Indeed, the visitors held onto their lead up to the halftime break, prompting Kampala Queens’ technical bench to call for changes.
Joan Ainembabazi, who had started in the draw against Kawempe, was introduced from the bench and levelled matters three minutes after the restart.
With the game destined to end in a draw, diminutive forward Kamiyati Naigaga got the winner for the hosts, scoring in the second minute of added time.
It should be noted that Naigaga also scored in the one-all draw against Kawempe Muslim last weekend.
In the other games played on Saturday, Kawempe Muslim came from behind to defeat Olila High School thanks to goals from Shadia Nabirye, Agnes Nabukenya and Latifah Nakasi. Brenda Atwani scored the consolation for Olila.
The game between Rines SS WFC and Asubo Ladies FC ended goalless.
Matchday Two action will climax on Sunday with Uganda Martyrs Lubaga WFC hosting Amus College, Lady Doves will take on St. Noa Girls, while She Maroons entertain SheCorporate.
