After last week's triumph the Foxes can't stop scoring, notching up another five goal haul on a bitterly cold morning. This time away, back on grass, at Ashley Down, the girls went one better than last week and kept a clean sheet.
It took a while for the girls to get warmed up enough, but it was clear from early on that there would only be one result as the Foxes dominated both possession and territory. Midway through the half the deadlock was broken with a cool strike from Captain K. Soon the lead was doubled as Jodie finished off another slick Foxes attack. Despite all the territorial advantage the half ended without further scoring. Conkers hadn't touched the ball all half.
The tie was finished off within a minute of the restart with Marta starting and finishing a slick Foxes move to go 3-0 up and the lead was extended further when Daisy's shot crept in under the keeper. There was to be no let up as the Foxes continued to attack down both flanks, with plenty of support in the box. At the back, Annie Wright stopped any Ashley move before they could threaten, meaning Bonkers only touched the ball once in the half.
The Foxes added a fifth when Bryony popped up at the back post to coolly slot home a cross from a metre out. Annie took over between the posts to stop Ellie freezing to the spot and allowed her a rare outfield chance as the girls saw out the final minutes of the match.
Bring on the Mums.....
