Loza Abera scored twice as Birkirkara thrashed Raiders 8-1 to keep up their fine start in Tuesday's Maltese top-flight contest.
The Ethiopia international has made an instant impact since teaming up with the Strips, having found the net eight times in five matches, including her first hat-trick in a 5-1 win against Mosta.
Having dropped to second on goal difference after Mgarr United's win, Birkirkara sought to gain top spot and they made a bright start with Raina Giusti's strike five minutes into the contest.
However, the visitors found their way back into the encounter from the spot through Leanne Micallef in the 12th minute but Abera struck 15 minutes later to put the hosts back in front.
