Ladies go down to new league leaders

Two goals in the opening five minutes and three in a five minute spell either side of half time were the undoing of the Ladies in their seven goal defeat at new league leaders Oxford City Nomads.

However, other periods of the game saw Woodley play good passing football and creating chances that saw Ellen Surtees hit the cross bar and May Hamblin the post when two goals behind.

Trailing by six goals two minutes into the second half, United still played their football with Hamblin a threat on the left flank, Rosie Page-Smith seeing shots blocked, Clara Stringer firing a free kick over the cross bar and home custodian Sophie Kirby being called upon on a number of occasions to deny the visitors.
