The second half opened with Newbury continuing to dominate but Portsmouth were more organised in defence which helped keep the score down. Karen had further chances to score but the ball went over the bar. After 22 minutes Leanne got her second, beating a defender and keeper in a challenge, which saw the ball go through the keeper’s legs. The final goal came when substitute right back, Lauren Sheldon, played the ball up the right hand side of the pitch to Leanne, now playing in right midfield, crossing to Colleen, on the left hand side of the goal, who set up Karen for her hat trick.
