Marlborough 3, Hereford 4

After the success of their first game in Premier 2 division last weekend, Marlborough Ladies were ready for another positive week. They started well applying good pressure to the Hereford defence and took an early lead with a goal from Helen Way from a well drilled short corner. A quick transition however left Marlborough open to an overloaded Hereford attack which after a good save from keeper Moxham, found a lucky bounce making it 1-1. Hereford came back hard and fought again to take the lead. Marlborough once more built some great attacking play and this time it was Lottie who managed to even the score with a goal slid in from the slightest of angles. Undeterred Hereford once more found the back of marlborough's net putting the pressure on the home team again and again. After some end to end play Crosby-Jones was found in the attacking D and having beaten the keeper, she made sure of Marlborough's third goal. Unfortunately time was on Hereford's side and they were able to sneak in a final winning goal before the final whistle. A fantastic effort from a newly reformed Marlborough 1st team.

The T H White man of the match was Alex Crosby-Jones.
