Match Report: Newcastle United 2-2 Bristol City
Goals from captain Vicky Losada and Sophie Ingle were not enough to secure three points for the Robins, as a late goal from Lois Joel resulted in a 2-2 draw with Newcastle United at the Gateshead International Stadium.
Oona Sevenius opened the scoring for Newcastle United in first-half stoppage time, before a second half double from Rio Hardy gave the Robins the lead. However, Joel’s long-range effort in the 89th minute denied City all three points.
The result leaves Bristol City sitting in fourth position in Barclays Women’s Super League 2. Manager Charlotte Healy named an unchanged starting XI from last week’s victory over Durham, with Lia O’Leary taking the place of Lexi Lloyd-Smith on the substitutes bench.
