BELLES HIT HAVANT FOR SIX

Posted on: Mon 01 Feb 2010

Doncaster Rovers Belles booked their place in The FA Women's Cup sponsored by E.ON Fifth Round by coming from behind to beat Havant & Waterlooville.

John Buckley's side, who are in fine form and sit third in The FA Women's Premier League, stormed to a 6-1 victory after falling behind early on.

After their shock 2-1 win at Cardiff in the Third Round last week, another upset had looked a possibility for the visitors when Charley Wilson out them ahead.

However, Doncaster's class came through in a clash played later than originally scheduled because of the bad weather throughout January.

The freezing conditions certainly did not seem to put Doncaster off their stride as six different scorers hit the net for the home side. Midfielder Vicky Exley equalised before Millie Bright added a deserved second. Victoria Williams, Precious Hamilton and Chelsea Weston then put the result beyond doubt as Havant tired before the scoring was completed by an own-goal.

Doncaster will now face Birmingham in the next round after they won 4-1 at home to Derby County in the only other Fourth Round clash to survive the weather.
