Oxford City Women enjoyed another emphatic win at Fleet on Sunday when two goals apiece from winger Emily Harris and striker Ellie White plus goals from Elli Walecki, Yas Edwards and Lucy White earned them a 7-2 win at Fleet.

Playng down a sizeable slope in the first half City were almost caught out immediately until some quick thinking from keeper Keira Maskell cleared up an early attack from the home side. City then settled into their more usual rhythm and went ahead after ten minutes when Edwards rounded the keeper and unselfishly squared the ball for Walecki to make it 1-0.

Fleet levelled soon after when their left winger ran the length of the pitch before making it 1-1 but City continued to create chances and Ellie White went close and Edwards rattled the bar with a header before Harris made it 2-1 with a sweetly hit shot across the keeper, followed inside 30 seconds by Ellie White making it 3-1 as she ran clear and calmly slotted home her first of the afternoon.

With rain pouring down, the game became a battle but on 42 minutes Harris fired home her second of the game to make it 4-1 at the break and just about scuttle the Fleet’s resistance.

City took full advantage after the break and White’s second - her 16th of the season - and Edwards’ first made it 6-1 before Lucy White joined the fun to make the final score 7-2 despite a further consolation for the home side.
