Match Dominance from the Hosts

Playing on home soil, Benin Women took the initiative from the first whistle, applying pressure and dictating the pace of the game.

Goals Seal the Deal

Benin's pressure paid off with two well-taken goals, one in each half likely, to put the result beyond doubt. The first goal would have settled any nerves and allowed Benin to play with more freedom.
