The Phobians comfortably sit at the top of their group with a game to spare
Oaks FC has secured qualification for the Women’s Premier League after thumping Rootz Sistaz 4-1 in the penultimate game of the GFA Regional Women’s Championship.
The female team of Hearts of Oak extended its lead at the top of Group A with its fourth win in four matches in the ongoing qualification league.
The Phobians wasted no time in establishing their intent after Fati Ibrahim curled a freekick into the net in the eighth minute.
Victoria Yeboah doubled the lead nine minutes later after meeting an Amanda Mills cross at the far post.
Mills went from provider to scorer following a period of dominance from Oaks FC, putting the game beyond Rootz Sistaz before the halftime break.
The team, led by former Black Queens coach Mercy Tagoe, missed several first-half chances as the score remained 3-0 at halftime.
After the break, Rootz Sistaz improved their game, pulling one back seven minutes into the second half.
However, Oaks FC responded a few moments later when Esenam Sarafina converted from the spot.
The Phobians comfortably sit at the top of their group with a game to spare and will play in the Women’s Premier League next season in the Southern Zone.
