Sophie played the first half in goal and stood firm.

The second half opened up more as the conditions worsened.

Only a few minutes in Lyla, who’d switched to left mid played a lovely through ball which released Sophie who took a touch and fired high and hard rippling the net more than the 50 mph wind
