Description

Defending champions Auckland United FC edged out Hekari Women's FC in a compelling OFC Women's Champions League match, bringing them close to securing a semi-final spot. Auckland took the lead just before halftime through Alaina Granger, then doubled it early in the second half with a strike from Ava Pritchard. Although Hekari's Ramona Padio posed a threat and Shalom Waida scored a late consolation goal, Auckland United largely controlled the second half, with Pia Vlok creating chances and Hekari's Maria Veronika making crucial defensive blocks. This victory puts Auckland in a strong position ahead of their match against PanSa FC, while Hekari will aim to recover against AS Pirae.
