St Neots III 2 Bishops Stortford IV 0
ST NEOTS managed to beat the only team that had taken points from them this season on Saturday. However, they did not have an easy game as many passes were wasted and the home side struggled to turn their dominance into goals. Debutant Kate Sutton enjoyed a good first half and Ali Stubbs broke the deadlock just before the interval.
The game was still being played at a slow pace as the second half got underway, but Stubbs broke through again to double the Saints' lead. They improved a little, but failed to score again and ended the game winning 2-0.
