Result:  Repton 5 - 0 Uppingham (Siebert (PC), Mumby (F), Johnson (F), Brown (F), Juncker (F))

Match Report: This was not one of Repton's better performances but with Thursday's Zone Round the priority this week I hope that the girls are saving themselves for that.  Repton opened the scoring through a Rebecka Siebert short corner and quickly followed up with a close range finish from Wiz Mumby after a good run on the right hand side.  Shona McCallin created the third goal for Friedi who typically was on hand to finish at close range.

The second half performance was better but Uppingham's defending improved too.  Several goalmouth scrambles were fruitless, largely thanks to Uppingham's resilience and a good second half performance from their goalkeeper.  In the last few minutes Repton also hit both posts - the second time was from a Lowri McIntosh short corner.  Second half goals came from Rosie Johnson after good work from Rebecka Siebert and Bex Brown scored another close-range finish. 

More to come on Thursday hopefully.
