CFCW Match Report: Ellesmere Port 1 - 4 Chester FC Women

Monday, 24 February 2025 20:32

Chester FC Women bounced back from last week’s Cup Semi-Final loss with a convincing league victory at Ellesmere Port.

The Blues took the lead after just eight minutes as Sarah Redman headed home from close range at The Cheshire.

Despite the Seals dominating the first half, the hosts equalised from the penalty spot just three minutes after the break.

But Chester restored the advantage just prior to the hour mark as Ciara Lee scored an excellent solo effort.

The three points were secured with two further goals, both finished clinically by Emma Gray to put the gloss on an excellent away win.

CHESTER: Doherty, Richardson, Kelso, Sconce, Owen, Redman, Williams, Lee, Smith, Gray, Davis.

SUBS: Bordessa, Mallon, Parr, Lefebvre, Dowell.

SCORERS: Redman 8, Lee 59, Gray 69 & 71.
