Hasaacas Ladies forward, Mukarama Abdulai, has praised the efforts of her team following their success in the 2023/24 Malta Guinness Women's Premier League season.

The Hasmal Ladies beat Ampem Darkoa Ladies 2-1 in the final on Saturday, June 8, 2024, at the University of Ghana to end the latter's dream of a three-peat.

Mukarama was on the scoresheet on the night for the Sekondi-based side after Veronica Baa Kumah had opened the scoring in the game, going on to win their first league title since the 2020/21 season.

Speaking to Joy Sports after the game, the former Northern Ladies striker couldn't hide her excitement.

Love that @AbdulaiMukarama got emotional when I spoke to her after @HasaacasLadies had won the 2023/24 Malta Guinness Women’s Premier League title.

The last two years had been difficult for her but good to see she’s enjoying her game now.

Her successes come at the right time for her following her return from injury after two years on the touchlines.

"I don't even have the words [to describe how I am feeling]. If I have ever been ungrateful, Allah should forgive me because my congratulatory messages have been too many," she added.

"It is something g that motivates me to think I can still be who I was before my injury."

Mukarama will now be looking ahead to a possible participation in the CAF Women's Champions League with Hasaacas Ladies but they will first have to do well in the WAFU B qualifiers which is set for August.
