While Edna Imade displayed her all-around talent—registering a 52% pass accuracy, creating three shots, and contributing defensively with one tackle, two aerial duels won, and four recoveries—Granada’s defence couldn’t contain the persistent attacks of their hosts.

The defeat leaves Granada in 7th place with 19 points, intensifying pressure ahead of their upcoming clash with UD Tenerife, where Imade will face Super Falcons stars Gift Monday and Rinsola Babajide.

Super Falcons hopeful, Edna Imade

Imade’s current form is nothing short of remarkable. She recently scored decisive goals against Levante Badalona, Levante, and Deportivo La Coruna, proving her consistency as Granada’s most potent attacking weapon.

Yet, Sunday’s result highlights that even her brilliance requires stronger team support to challenge top-tier teams like Madrid.

Granada will need a quick recovery if they hope to stay competitive in Liga F, and they will be hoping on Edna Imade to continue leading the charge.
