TakeCare ends Kanoa’s streak
TakeCare handed Kanoa Football Club its first loss of the season after pulling off a 2-1 victory in their Tinekcha-Awaal game in the Dove Women’s League Spring 2022 last Wednesday at the NMI Soccer Training Center in Koblerville.
Bernadette Horey and Josephine Cardelle scored the two goals for TakeCare, which now narrows its gap with Kanoa in the team standing after improving to a 4-1-1 win-draw-loss record. Kanoa has a 5-0-1 slate, ending its winning streak after only Kaithlyn Chavez hit the board for the team.
