A determined home performance ended in a 0–2 defeat, bringing an early halt to the team's promising momentum. The squad showed real heart and grit throughout, standing toe‑to‑toe with an aggressive opponent for most of the match.
The deadlock finally broke in the 80th minute, when Skye Owen found the opener after sustained pressure. Desperate for a late equaliser, the tactical gamble to flood bodies forward backfired when Rosie Axten struck a second to finish the game.
Off the pitch, the club announced that Farah Crompton has officially signed on as the new number 10 after sealing the deal with Brad Mitchell.
