Division 1
SEVERN Tunnel LFC maintained their promotion bid with a 6-3 victory at Caerphilly Castle on Sunday.
Two goals apiece for Bethan Gammon, Mikaela Roberts and Taylor Fitzgerald saw Tunnel leading 6-1 until the final 10 minutes when Castle scored twice.
Tunnel boss Sian Elizabeth Rees put fatigue down as the reason for the two late goals conceded.
“There were moments of brilliance with Carys Soper, who was unstoppable as always,” she said later.
“Shauna Pentney Taylor and Taran Fitzgerald, Bethan and Mikaela were superb in attack.
“Our defence was solid with some great passing but we suffered a heavy loss when Kath Watkins injured a knee seven minutes from the end.
“We are hoping it’s not serious because we will need her for our cup match at Goytre next Sunday,” she added.
