Joybabe 5, Camden Town 7
SHARP-SHOOTER Carmel Clinton put in a four-goal super show on Sunday to earn Camden Town a pulsating victory.
Two from Clinton and a strike from Susanna Twidale saw Town in front no fewer than three times in an action-packed first-half. In a 12-goal thriller, Joybabe hit back to level the scores at the break. Joybabe struck first after the restart to take the lead for the first time. But it was Town who came out on top thanks to another double strike from Clinton, a Kath Wickens penalty and a superb goal from Carol Brown.
Hamsptead 1, Katabella 1
THE Kats showed tremendous team spirit to salvage a draw on Sunday despite having 10 players for most of the match after midfielder Franziska John was sent off midway through the first-half.
Hampstead had to work hard for their goal as Katabella defenders Jen Berlin and Lindsey Tethal, and goalkeeper Anne Schulthess, worked tirelessly to fill the void left by John’s dismissal. The Kats snatched a share of the spoils late on when sub Polly Buckle netted the equaliser.
