The hosts however edged in front through Chloe Ball after twenty minutes and a second goal on the cusp of halftime for Ellie Chaffe was a monumental blow for Ed Jackson-Norris’s side. Top-scorer Simone O’Brien remarked after the tie at Winklebury: “We felt we had our strongest start to a game in a long while. “For the second goal the ball was just not cleared from the middle. It fumbled around and their player took a shot and made a good connection and it went bottom left.
