Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>Lady Doves beat Uganda Christian University (UCU) Lady Cardinals 3-0 at Katusabe Grounds in Masindi to secure yet another season in the Fufa Women Super League (FWSL).<\/b><\/p>\n

Doves, the 2021 FWSL champions and participants at the inaugural Caf Women\u2019s Champions League later that year, needed a win in their last three games to be safe and did it with two to spare.<\/p>\n

The win, courtesy of; a second minute goal from Sumaya Nsisi, a 20th minute effort from Docus Kwikiriza and a 30th minute strike from Norah Alupo, propelled Doves to 21 points in 16 matches.<\/p>\n

It leaves UCU on 14 points and needing a miracle to survive. They need to win their final fixtures against Rines SS and Asubo Ladies. Then hope Makerere University lose their remaining matches \u2013 both away to Uganda Martyrs High School and Lady Doves.<\/p>\n

The other hope, if UCU win their matches, is that Wakiso lose both or get a maximum of one point in matches against Lady Doves and Rines. Rines, the other side yet to secure safety, need just a point from their relegation battles with UCU and Wakiso.<\/p>\n
