Swieqi United surged to the top of the Assikura Women’s League standings with a commanding 4-0 victory over San Ġwann, moving to 28 points after 12 matches.

The Owls, led by Dorianne Theuma, continued their impressive form with a dominant performance, as Karima Abdulai scored a hat trick and Salamatu Abdulai added another goal to secure the win.

Their closest challengers, Hibernians, now sit one point behind in second place.

Champions Birkirkara secured a crucial 3-1 win against Mġarr United, climbing to third place on 26 points.

Vince Galea’s team overturned an early deficit after Yulya Carella gave Mġarr the lead.

Former Mġarr player Luana Cabral equalized, with defenders Valentina Rapa and Charlene Zammit finding the net to seal the win.

After this loss, Mġarr remain fourth with 24 points.
The league continues this weekend with the final matchday of the year.

Hibernians will kick off on Friday, aiming to regain top spot as they face San Ġwann. A win would temporarily place the Paolites at the summit before Swieqi take on Mtarfa on Saturday, where they will be favorites to secure another victory.

Meanwhile, Mġarr will look to bounce back when they face Lija Athletic, who sit second from bottom.

Birkirkara will aim to build on their recent success as they take on Valletta, eyeing a second consecutive win to close the gap on the leaders.
