50 min: Salmon still looks isolated at the start of this second half. Bristol City really need to get some midfielder runners coming off of her as the game goes on.

52 min: Chance for Bristol City there as Salmon drops deep and does have support this time as Wellings runs in behind. Salmon feeds her and the winger scampers through but is thwarted by Weiss at the last moment as the keeper just about manages to claim the ball and hold onto it.

55 min: How long before Tanya Oxtoby looks to her bench? Salmon looks dangerous but she’s alone in that category.

Oh here we go…

57 min: CHANCE! Oh how has that not gone in?!

Harrison’s first touches are to hold the ball up and spin away from N’Dowe. She finds Wellings in the middle and her shot beats Weiss but is cleared off the line! The rebound is then pounced on by Weiss.

58 min: GOAL! And just like that it could be all over!

Shania Hayles looks like she has nowhere to go but from the tightest of angles she manages to fire across Baggaley and into the far corner. All three points sown up?

63 min: Bristol City come forward at the other end but Purfield’s low delivery is comfortable for Weiss. The hosts are seriously lacking a cutting edge. Salmon offers that potency but she has no hope around her.

65 min: YELLOW! Goalscorer Petzelberger fouls Salmon on the edge of the area and goes in the book for the late tackle.

Chance for the hosts to pull one back…
