Q1 Fever 20 | Swifts 11
In the opening moments, the Swifts Grace Nweke took the first goal, but it was Fever who grabbed control of the game.
Kadie-Ann Dehaney and Sunday Aryang produced incredible pressure in the goal circle, with Swifts’ Nweke and Helen Housby having to use their circle edge more than they would have liked.
Such pressure saved Fever from a Houbsy super shot, with the goal attack struggling under the pressure of Aryang.
