Henley Ladies 2 took to the pitch against Windsor, with the team aiming to continue their promotion push at the top of the league. The conditions were perfect for a high-paced, intense game, and Henley made an immediate impact from the first whistle.
The team started with real intensity, pressing high and moving the ball well. It didn’t take long for Henley to break the deadlock. A well-timed run and calm finish from Hayley Munt put Henley 1-0 up, settling the nerves early. The goal was a product of the team’s excellent link-up play, with defence and midfield working seamlessly to bring the ball forward and create the opportunity.

However, Henley weren’t done yet. As the game progressed, Lyons added a third with a stunning reverse-stick shot that left the Windsor keeper with no chance. The play was a perfect example of Henley’s attacking versatility, combining skill and quick thinking.
Defensively, Henley remained solid as ever, with Ellie Bryant in goal making a number of key saves to keep a clean sheet. Her sharp reflexes and communication with the defenders ensured Windsor could not find a way back into the match.
Henley’s final goal came from a trademark short corner, executed to perfection by Kat Green. The disguised shot flew past the keeper into the corner of the goal, putting the finishing touches on a dominant performance. Henley were well and truly in control, and the 4-0 scoreline reflected the team’s outstanding teamwork and quality across the board.
