In an exciting last day of the Sierra Leone maiden women’s league campaign, Mogbwema Queens defeated Correctional Service 1-0 to clinch the 2022-23 Sierra Leone Women’s Premier League title in Friday’s final game in Rutile.
With a ticket to continental competition up for grabs, Mogbwema Queens only needed a victory to win the title going to Friday’s crunch tie with their title rivals Kahunla Queens hopes were dashed away following their shock 2-1 home defeat to Ram K FC at the Kenema complex in their final match.
Rashidatu Kamara classic Freekick handed Mogbwema Queens their first-ever silverware after garnering six points ahead of their rivals.
The victory gives them a ticket to the CAF Women’s Champions League.
