Ritah Kivumbi's strike seals Mallbackens victory at Alvsjo AIK

Ritah Kivumbi was on target as her goal guaranteed Mallbackens 2-0 victory over Alvsjo AIK in Saturday's Swedish Elitettan encounter.

The Uganda international made her 19th appearance of the season for Conny Johansson's team and she ensured her fifth outing as a substitute, helping her side extend their winning momentum.

Mallbackens aimed to continue from a 3-0 win against Brommapojkarna in their last outing but could not find a breakthrough in the opening half against Alvsjo.

After the break, the visitors maintained their search for the opener against the hosts and eventually found a breakthrough through Ida Hallstensson's brilliant strike in the 53rd minute.
