Last-minute winner ensures victory

This was a very tight affair with limited opportunities for both sides with no goals coming in the first-half as both defences held strong

The second-half began much the same but on 51 minutes a tame Crusaders shot just crept over the line

The half continued with few chances and both defences held firm

Sutton then made some positional changes and on 82 minutes these paid off when Louise Price ran onto a through-ball and placed it over the advancing keeper to square the game

Sutton then began to push forward and created a number of chances

The winner came on 90 minutes when captain Ruth Graham ran through and placed the ball over the keeper from 20yards

Player-of-the-match was Louise Price who worked hard and took her goal well which started the Sutton revival

Other notable performances came from Ruth Graham, Chloe Madden and Cheyanne Jarvis

Manager Andy Burman said "This was a tight game and credit to both defences for being so solid. We got the points through some quality finishing"
