Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>Kampala Queens are ready to make the most of the chance Kawempe Muslim has handed them to defend the FUFA Women Super League (FWSL).<\/b><\/p>\n

Kawempe failed to initiate a momentous lead by losing 2-1 to relegation-threatened Wakiso Hill on Thursday.<\/p>\n

And when Kampala Queens faced a similar opponent on Sunday, they beat Lady Doves 3-1.<\/p>\n

Coach Charles Ayiekoh handed a debut to defender Patience Nabulobi, who was signed in August last year and she shored things up at the back.<\/p>\n

Anitah Namata was handed a rare start and she repaid the faith with a stoppage time opener in the first half.<\/p>\n

Kenyan midfielder Mercyline Wayodi made it 2-0 in the 70th minute while Lukia Namubiru added a third in stoppage time. Lady Doves then found a consolation through Evelyne Nandera.<\/p>\n

The win leaves KQ four points behind Kawempe, who have 34 points in 16 matches, with a game in hand against another relegation side in Asubo Ladies.<\/p>\n

Doves, with 18 points, still sit four points ahead of Uganda Christian University (UCU) Lady Cardinals, who are ninth.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, on Saturday, Sharon Namatovu scored the lone goal as Makerere University beat She Maroons 1-0 at home to climb to fifth with 19 points.<\/p>\n
