Rachel Kundananji continued her fine form for Madrid CFF on Sunday afternoon, providing her third assist of the season to help her side come from behind and beat Sporting de Huelva 3-1. The Copper Queens attacker assisted Madrid's equalizer just before halftime, as Vitoria da Silva Rosa headed home her cross in the 39th minute. Sporting had initially taken the lead through Jessica Christina De Filippo, but Madrid managed to level the score by halftime. In the second half, Madrid were awarded two penalties, but goalkeeper Zala Meršnik saved both shots from Mónica Hickmann. However, Madrid ultimately secured the victory, with Karen Araya scoring in the 82nd minute and Hickmann making up for her missed penalties with a goal in the 90th minute. With this win, Madrid moves up to third position in the Liga F table, surpassing Atlético Madrid, with a total of 12 points from five matches. Kundananji's assist brings her total goal contributions this season to seven, including four goals in five games. Image - file photo of Madrid CFF.
