03:19season still yet to be completed but already a hundred goal positive difference we only
03:31conceded 12 and 29 games they've only conceded once in this tournament but it ended in defeat
03:38against Massar after beating breaks poorly for the sundowns it's a ball over the top oh that
03:46could be a penalty Oh incredible drama the only goal the sundowns have conceded in this
03:53tournament was from the penalty spot and they lost to Massar could another penalty mean they
04:01pay a hefty price I'm in peace Essien absolutely cleaned out that's so let's also had to get it
04:15right well she had to be clear she was gonna win it but she was well off it and that is a very poor
04:24challenge there was no danger either Essien was flicking it to Andile Dlamini
04:32Martha the responsibility a huge moment oh what a save and no wonder she celebrates as if she
04:47scored a last-minute goal well that was the side she was beaten by in the defeat to Massar
04:59just want to make sure she's okay it's a real thumper not great amount of distance so it's
05:10certainly correct that the referee brought this to a stop but this the save and absolutely cat
05:20like reaction it wasn't the worst penalty from Elise but Dlamini guessing right and pushing it
05:30wide well no wonder banyana banyana coach Desiree Ellis with delight Edo Queens oh that's brilliant
05:42skill to get to the byline it's punched out could it be Florence Ijeoma Lucy with the goal at her
05:53mercy a fashion with defeat to Massar back-to-back wins should see them through unless the Edo
06:00Queens can find the equalizer they've done it incredible Mamaloni Sundowns were desperate to
06:11just see this out and yet they are down and out Grace Cunha and the Edo Queens finally finding
06:24their moment and they are making history first ever Nigerian champions and now in their first
06:35ever Champions League affair as they stand they are going through as a Nigerian flag flies high
06:43although a Duco Moses is going wild as he needs his team to remain focused but this was what they
06:54were dream ball the header Dlamini for the first time getting it horribly wrong and this time there
07:03was no missing MNP's Essien who hit the bar with the goal of mercy in the first half Wow she has
07:13made amends and then some the pressure of Mamadou helping to take Dlamini's eye off the prize
07:24the Yana and the Sundowns the Sundowns couldn't keep it and now can the Edo Queens win it the
07:34ball across the flag stays down but it's over the bar and skipping away the teenager pokes it across
07:45they've won it incredible scenes
07:58they were going home and now they're not just heading to their first ever
08:04semi-finals they're gonna do it top of the group
08:07it's very much over brilliant skills Oh Segway showing exactly why she's a huge Nigerian talent
08:18and then this time lifted high into the sky but thankfully into the roof of the net
08:25Mamadou smashing in a smash and grab but on the balance of play Edo Queens deserving
08:38Mameloni Sundowns were desperate to just see the match out and says but they have lost twice in
08:46the group and Edo Queens are flying high the Nigerian champions scoring twice in injury time
