The first Clapton CFC Women’s First Team home friendly of pre-season ended in defeat against fast and strong opponents who play a level higher.
Playing in orange bibs due to the home kit going missing (now found), CCFC were 3-0 down in the first half but fought back to 3-2 just after half-time.
Sophie Ugur scored them both – firstly turning in a cross from close range, while the second saw her beat two defenders and then slot past the keeper.
Late on new signing (more to come on those) Leigha Bradding-Butler closed the gap with a fine composed finish.
