Mvula shot a huge 60 goals as Thunder stayed top, while Rhinos sit seventh with three games to go. The Malawian was integral to Thunders\u2019 win, shooting at an incredible 94 percent accuracy rate.<\/p>\n

\u201cRhinos forced Thunder off the backline but couldn\u2019t complete the transition, Mvula added the goal for thunder 49- 81. There is too much on the ball for Rhinos and Mvula continued to add for Thunder. Cardwell went long into Mvula, who got the final goal to end the game 49-84,\u201d www. netballsl.com reported.<\/p>\n

The former Blue Eagles Sisters goal-shooter said it was important to help her team win the match in their quest for the title. \u201cIt is all about the team. We work hard as a team to get good results,\u201d Mvula said.<\/p>\n

The development comes after her compatriot, Mwawi, made the difference for her Australia Suncorp Super Netball League side Melbourne Vixens with a Player-of-the-Match display in a nail-biting 66-64 win over Queensland Firebirds on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The win saw Vixens return to the top of the ladder with 24 points from eight matches. Trailing Firebirds for most of the game, Vixens dug deep in the final term to upstage their opponents with some huge defensive wins and Kumwenda\u2019s super shooting.<\/p>\n
