Good afternoon and welcome to Station Park where we welcome Rangers in the Scottish Building Society Scottish Women’s Premier League One. It will be good to get back into league action after a couple weeks off, we’ve worked hard in training and know the performance level we should be playing at and I accept nothing more than a great performance from every player today. We know today will be a tough physical game but we are prepared and going for the three points. Nicola

Good afternoon and welcome to Station Park for our Scottish Building Society Scottish Women’s Premier League One meeting with Rangers. This will be the third time we have faced our visitors this season & on both occasions so far we have come out on top. We have prepared well for this afternoon’s game so I hope we can put in a good performance & be on the correct side of the result to lift ourselves back into the top half of the league. The defeat to Spartans at the end of last month was disappointing, however we will be looking to win our final two games and end our season on a high. As ever thanks for your support as it really is appreciated by the players and staff & I hope you enjoy the game.

The first chance fell to Danni McGinley in the seventh minute when she turned her marker before firing over. Sixty seconds later Nicole Cairney fired wide and over as both sides were end to end early on. Cheryl Kilcoyne sent a free kick over the bar shortly before McGinley was denied by Emily Mutch in the 15th minute. The visitors’ Kathleen McGovern sent a header into Fiona McNicoll’s arms while McGinley was inches away from giving Farmington the lead with a low effort that creeped past the post. Farmington were to rue that missed opportunity in the 18th minute; Ewens saw her shot parried by McNicoll and McGovern reacted first to break the deadlock for Celtic. Eddie Wolecki Black’s side looked to double their advantage shortly after as Ewens curled a free kick wide. Kilcoyne had an effort deflected into Mutch’s arms before Kayleigh Brough was also unlucky as her header from Nicola Davidson’s free kick was held. The second half almost saw an early second for Celtic when Brough cleared off the line following a Ewens corner. The visiting attacker couldn’t beat McNicoll with two efforts meanwhile Kirsty Deans and Caroline Heron saw chances blocked by defenders as Farmington were seeking an equaliser. McGovern was denied by McNicoll again while Mutch held Heron’s long range effort with the game still looking like either side could score next. As the game entered the final ten minutes Ewens, McGovern and Kelly Clark all sent shots off target. The clock moved into injury time and Farmington were given a chance to grab a late equaliser as they were awarded a free kick 25 yards out; Nicola Davidson stepped up but couldn’t keep her set piece down and the ball landed in the Mert End.
