FA Women’s Cup

WOODLEY UNITED put on a strong display despite being beaten against a side two league’s above them, Oxford United.

With a crowd of more than 400 who turned out to the Bulmershe Pavilion to watch the cup tie, Oxford eventually broke the deadlock after a resiliant start from Woodley after 30 minutes.

The visitors added to their lead before the break and scored twice more in the second-half to seal the tie.

Woodley manager Marc Surtees said: “Proud of every single player today (Sunday). We had a plan and they stuck to it, every single player gave everything for the whole game against a very good Oxford United team. I couldn’t have asked for more from them, we now build on this.”
