Super Falcons’ defender, Halimatu Ayinde, proved instrumental in FC Rosengard’s impressive victory over Kristianstad, securing a commanding 3-1 win in Match Day 2 of the Damallsvenskan league, Sweden’s premier women’s football division. With the win, Rosengard maintains their position at the summit of the table, boasting a perfect record of 6 points from 2 games.

In a dominant display away from home, the Malmö-based outfit asserted their authority early on, notching up three first-half goals courtesy of Tanikawa, Holdt, and Öling in the 39th, 41st, and 43rd minute respectively. Despite a late consolation goal from Sayer for Kristianstad FC, it was too little too late, as Rosengard clinched all three points with a stellar performance on enemy territory.

Halimatu Ayinde, featuring for the entire match after playing just 45 minutes in the previous game, put in a solid performance. Playing on the left side of a three-at-the-back formation, she helped her team maintain control throughout the game.

Following the team’s impressive display, Ayinde took to her social media platform to commend her teammates, expressing her pride in their collective effort and urging them to maintain the momentum going forward.

She wrote: “Great performance from the entire team yesterday!! Let’s continue with the momentum,” Ayinde shared on her social media page.

Looking ahead, Halimatu Ayinde and her FC Rosengard teammates are poised to host AIK in the upcoming Match Day 3 encounter of the Damallsvenskan league. With their winning streak intact, Rosengard will be determined to build on their early-season success and continue their ascent towards glory in the prestigious Swedish league.
