Tura Magic are showing no signs of slowing down in this season of the FNB Women’s Super League, after thrashing Namib Daughters on Saturday 6-0, and Magic captain Lovisa Mulunga has said the win came as a result of teamwork.

Magic on Saturday recorded another pivotal win in the league as they continue to push for the title. Speaking to New Era Sport on Saturday, Mulunga, who bagged a hattrick on the day, said it was a tough match but maintained that teamwork made them saw off their rivals.

“It’s not an easy match but the team effort proved to have worked for us, that’s why we collected maximum points. We are hoping to keep the same momentum and believe we can march on and reach our target, which is to win the league,” she said. 

In addition, Magic Ladies head coach Shama Gure also shared his thoughts on the match, stating that the team had executed their game plan effectively. Despite acknowledging that the game was tough, Gure expressed satisfaction with the team’s strategy and overall performance. 

“We built on our previous performance and stuck to our game plan, which worked for us. The game was tough, but we take it one game at a time, and that’s what we’re going to stick to. I am happy with the overall performance from the girls,” Gure said.

Meanwhile, Namib Daughters coach Ryan Matsi said he was happy but disappointed with a few decisions from the officials, which he believes, caused them to lose points. 

“We played a good game but a few errors from the referees caused us points on the road, which is very unfortunate. But I think we have the potential and we are likely to bounce back in our next match,” he said.
