Match-day three in the Hollywoodbets Super League closed off with a Royal AM win over Copperbelt Ladies, and Mamelodi Sundowns Ladies extended their winning streak against First Touch.

ROYAL AM VICTORY OVER COPPERBELT
In the televised Super League fixture between Royal AM and the newly promoted Copperbelt, Royal AM grabbed their second win of the season, winning 3-1 against their Limpopo counterparts.
Royal AM opened the scoring with a goal from Julia Lepheane in the 23rd minutes, followed by an equaliser from the home side just after half time.
