In a spectacular display of dominance, Glasgow City thrashed Queen's Park 8-0, propelling themselves to joint-leaders in the Scottish Women's Premier League (SWPL) alongside Rangers and Hearts. The emphatic victory came as both Rangers and Celtic had taken a break from league action due to their commitments in the Women's Champions League, allowing City to seize the opportunity to close the gap at the top. The match got off to a flying start for Glasgow City, with Natalia Wrobel opening the scoring early on after a well-placed assist from Sofia Maatta. This early goal set the tone for what would become a one-sided affair. Queen's Park struggled to cope with City’s relentless attacking play and found themselves further behind just before halftime when Lisa Forrest found the back of the net, leaving the visitors reeling. The second half saw City awarded a penalty which was confidently converted by Nicole Kozlova, extending their lead to three goals. Maatta was not done yet; she added two more goals in quick succession, showcasing her attacking prowess and contributing significantly to her team's commanding performance. As the game wore on, Aleigh Gambone joined the scoring party, before Kozlova completed her hat-trick with two additional goals, bringing the final score to an astonishing 8-0. The result not only bolstered City’s goal difference but also sent a powerful message to their rivals that they are serious contenders for the title this season. In other matches, Partick Thistle enjoyed a solid victory against Motherwell, winning 4-0 away from home. Meanwhile, Aberdeen and Dundee United played out a tightly contested 1-1 draw in the north-east, each team settling for a point. The weekend of action culminated in Hearts' impressive 4-0 victory over Hibernian in the Edinburgh derby on Friday. This win sees Hearts level on points with Rangers, though they trail due to an inferior goal difference. As the SWPL continues to heat up, the race for the title is tighter than ever. With teams like Glasgow City, Rangers, and Hearts all vying for the top spot, fans can expect an exhilarating season ahead. The next round of fixtures promises to be equally thrilling, with Montrose set to face Spartans in the upcoming Sunday clash, which will be broadcast live on BBC Alba, iPlayer, and the BBC Sport website and app.
