Holy Faith Convent rallies past Carapichaima West

Holy Faith Convent was made to come from a goal down to beat Carapichaima West 2-1 and maintain their 100 percent winning record in the Central Zone.

Isabel Toussaint had given Carapichaima West a 1-0 lead with her tenth goal in two matches, only for Zalika Mahadeo to draw Holy Faith Convent (Couva) level from the penalty spot before Crista Joseph’s free kick sealed the comeback win, their third from as many matches.
