Greater urgency was in evidence after the restart although once again it was the hosts who scored first. Great resilience and determination however saw the Fjordhus ladies awarded a penalty stroke which saw the ever reliable Janet Jack calmly netted to even the score.

Many thanks to Mr and Mrs Kellett for driving and navigating the bus to Aberdeen for the team.

This game started slowly but soon picked up momentum.

Abbie Forster made an outstanding sweep up the pitch to Polly Bell who found Emma Suddon on hand to direct the ball straight past the keeper for the only goal of the match.

The University side never gave up but an on form Reivers defence remained solid. A fine team performance in a very entertaining match.
