Ladies go down to the Cherries

In the meeting of last season's runners up v fourth place Woodley a competitive first half saw a Freya Jenkins debut goal level the score on twenty minutes following good work from Maddie Sawyer, which remained the case at half time. Earlier in the half Jodie Penny attempted to lob the home keeper from distance and Rosie Page-Smith fired over the bar from twenty five yards.

League title favourites AFC Bournemouth retook the lead three minutes into the second half from close range and despite Woodley's best efforts they were unable to find a second with the Cherries scoring the decisive fourth goal of the match.
