GOING away with 10 was always going to test Stroud L2 with their 4-4-1 formation. Centre-backs Hannah Scott and Molley Combe deftly picked up any loose attacking players.

Leominster however soon found the extra player an advantage, scoring four times in the first-half.

The second-half, saw Stroud dominate with the majority of the play in Stroud's attacking half,Tracey Morris crossed to Esme Clarke giving Stroud a well deserved goal.

Despite two further short corner strikes from Jenny Howarth, Leominster responded scoring three more on the break.

Star players: Morris and Scott.
