Kgatlana grabs assist as Matlou enjoys winning full debut with Eibar

Thembi Kgatlana grabbed an assist for Eibar as Noko Matlou made her first appearance in their side's 2-0 triumph over Logrono in Wednesday's Spanish Primera Iberdrola encounter.

Kgatlana joined the Spanish side from Portuguese champions Sports Lisbon Benfica in July and continued her impactful debut season, playing a crucial role in the triumph against Jose Moncayo's team.

Matlou arrived from South African side Maindies in October and the 2008 African Women's Player of the Year finally fulfilled her dream of becoming a full professional at 35 years of age against Logrono.

Having ended 2020 with a 4-2 defeat at Valencia, Iker Dorronsoro handed the South Africa duo starting roles against compatriot Nothando Vilakazi, who came on from the bench for the visitors.
