Shortly afterwards, MCFF increased their lead thanks to Granada-born ‘pichichi’ Sonia Torralvo, who scored her 15th goal of the League season (0-2, 65’).
In 71’, local striker Tamara narrowed the gap to take the score to 1-2. Yet Futu, from a Carmen Gómez pass, sealed victory in the closing stages (1-3, 88’).
