Sunday's strike and Mbeleck's brace inspire Maccabi Kiryat Gat to victory

Cameroon's Genevieve Mbeleck bagged a brace and Nigeria's Uchechi Sunday scored in Maccabi Kiryat Gat's 6-1 victory over Hapoel Petach Tikva in Friday's Israeli Ligat Al encounter.

Following the 2-1 win over Ironi Ramat HaSharon, Kiryat Gat sought to continue their winning run against Netanya, who enjoyed a 3-0 walkover against Maccabi Holon in their last league outing.

The African duo earned starting spots for Kiryat Gat and they both made their mark to ensure the side maintained their good form.
