MATCH REPORT | BRIGHOUSE TOWN WOMEN 3-0 NEWCASTLE UNITED WOMEN

By David Foy

4th April 2021: Vitality FA Cup 2nd Round

Brighouse Town 3-0 Newcastle United (AET).

Two goals from substitute Ami Woodruff either side of a Drew Greene strike saw Brighouse set up a West Yorkshire Derby with Huddersfield Town in the next round.

After an uneventful 90 minutes The Orange Army broke the deadlock early on in the first half of Extra Time. Woodruff kept herself onside, got behind the defender before firing high and left of The Magpie’s goal. Then moments later a mis-communication in the Newcastle backline allowed Drew Greene to nip in and curl into the corner.

With the final kick of the match Woodruff patiently worked her way through the centre of defence, set herself before firing into the roof of the net to send Brighouse Town Women into the third round where they face Huddersfield Town Ladies.
