Sutton Coldfield Town Royals 1-4 Sandwell Ladies

Sutton started the game with a bare eleven so when Lauren Swift limped off early injured, it was always going to be an uphill battle

Despite showing real promise and threat, Sutton went one down to a superb header and went into half-time 2-0 down

After the break Sutton continued to press and great work from Holly down the left followed by a sublime though-ball to Kayani and it was 2-1 on the hour mark

But unfortunately in pressing for the equaliser, a lack of subs and tired legs showed and 2 further Sandwell goals put the final result beyond doubt

A 4-1 loss but again great spirit and effort were shown by all the ladies
