Malta Continues Winning Streak in UEFA Women’s Nations League, Honours Football Pioneers
Malta showcased a stellar performance to secure their third straight victory in the UEFA Women’s Nations League, outclassing Andorra at the Centenary Stadium on Friday.
This win served as an apt reply to Latvia’s 5-0 triumph over Moldova earlier that day, ensuring Malta maintained a three-point lead over the Baltic nation in their group.
Striker Haley Bugeja shone once more, scoring twice and clinching her spot as Malta women’s third-highest all-time scorer. Furthermore, she now ranks fifth in the combined list of top scorers for both men’s and women’s teams.
In this matchup against Andorra, head coach Manuela Tesse retained the winning lineup that had previously conquered Moldova.
Before kickoff, the Malta FA took a moment to honour the squad from two decades ago — the trailblazers who represented the nation in the UEFA Women’s Euro 2005 qualifiers.
This gesture was a poignant reminder to those present about the pioneers who set the stage for the remarkable progress the current generation continues to achieve.
Well done team!
