'A really good feeling' - Wolves continue strong home start and gain revenge

Wolves captain Anna Morphet says there is ‘a really good feeling’ around the squad after they made it back-to-back victories in Women’s Super League 2.

Newly-promoted Wolves have won both home games in WSL2 so far this season to sit third in the table ahead of Sunday’s trip to unbeaten Ipswich Town.

Amber Hughes, Mel Filis and Morphet got the goals as Wolves beat Burnley 3-0 at the SEAH Stadium in Telford - gaining a measure of revenge on a side who pipped them to the National League North title last season.

“I’m buzzing,” said Moprhet. “I think we came off last week with a really good feeling - we brought a lot of energy to that game and a good performance, so we wanted to make sure we carried that on coming into this week.

“I think we prepped really well in training this week and came out with another fantastic win and clean sheet - there’s a really good feeling around the squad.”

In the WSL, Lynn Wilms scored an 89th-minute equaliser as Villa snatched a 1-1 draw against Brighton, leaving each club still in search of their first win of the season.

Birmingham City are also without a win after going down 2-0 to Chelsea, whose goals came from Lexi Potter and Melvine Malard.

Naomi Sharp scored a 95th-minute winner as Albion earned their fourth consecutive victory in all competitions to move up to fifth in National League North, much to the delight of the goalscorer.

Sharp said: “I’m so happy, and the girls worked so hard all game. They put in a great shift, and we got the win. I’m so pleased with us today.”

Sporting Khalsa and Kidderminster Harriers played out a 1-1 draw in National One Midlands, with Eva Cassidy firing Khalsa in front before Amelia Hiscox grabbed Harriers’ equaliser eight minutes into the second half.

Lye Town gained their first victory of the season as Tash Baptiste scored twice in their 2-0 victory at Chesterfield.

Hednesford Town are through to the third qualifying round of the Women’s FA Cup after an enthralling 3-2 victory over Shifnal Town at Keys Park.

Janelle Straker got the winner with three minutes of normal time remaining. Mill Rogers and Straker had twice given Hednesford the lead, only for Shifnal to reply on each occasion.

But Straker was not to be denied a second time as she burst through midfield and slotted home the winning goal.

Walsall also won a thriller - 4-3 at Broseley - and are just won win away from reaching the first round proper for the first time in their history.

Athena Simpson netted early on in the first half to put her side in front, before Mia Fellows scored either side of the interval with a Broseley goal sandwiched in between.

The hosts levelled things up with 10 minutes left to play with two quick goals, before Maddie Weall netted the winner late on to send the Saddlers through.

Lichfield City were knocked out on penalties by Coventry Sphinx after a 3-3 draw, having led 3-1, while Stourbridge went down 5-0 at the hands of Solihull Moors and Halesowen Town lost 3-1 to Alvechurch.

In West Midlands League Division One South, Dudley Town suffered a 3-0 defeat at home to Bromsgrove Sporting.
