Enith pulled off a great save to turn María José’s 32-yard strike behind for a corner kick. Shortly after, Candela responded at the other end from long range and Aline Reis was equal to it.      

Esther had a goal disallowed for offside over the midway mark of the first half. Alas, Blom made it 0-1 to the away side on 37 minutes.

Asun came close to equalising minutes before the break following a blistering driving run from her own half, but her effort was blocked by Aline Reis.

The away side had a narrow 0-1 lead at the break. 

VCF Femenino came out in the second half looking to bring menace into the opposition box and close to the hour mark, Salmi made it 1-1 from 12 yards after a foul on Asun.
