Coventry United 1–2 Tottenham Hotspur on 17 April 2016

Following a dramatic Ryman Cup Final victory over Charlton Athletic, Spurs Ladies looked to cement sixth place in their final league game of the campaign at high-flying Coventry United.

Defeated just twice all season prior to Sunday, the home team started well and goalkeeper Chloe Morgan was forced into a spectacular double save early on, first to deny Marie Gauntlett’s long-range strike from just outside the area with a full-stretch save, before acrobatically keeping out Alison Hall following up.

Just two minutes later, with 18th minutes on the clock, the hosts broke the deadlock. Christina Torkildsen’s cross to the far post was guided into the far corner of the net by Hall.

Anna Wilcox and Hall struck wide before Wendy Martin was inches away from converting Josie Green's cross. Avilla Bergin then tested Charlotte McElroy from 25 yards, Hall struck the side-netting and Martin almost found Kelley Blanchflower charging in on goal.

Morgan was again needed to make two vital saves both just before, and following the break. Hall found herself free inside the area and her attempted lob was denied, prior to Hall returning the favour to Torkildsen with a dangerous cross, also denied at close-range.

Green’s delightful pass over the top almost saw Bergin break free on goal if not for Annabel Johnson’s recovery challenge.

It all changed with 10 minutes to go.

First, Rosie Kmita grabbed an equaliser with a thunderous 25-yarder that arrowed home.

Then, as Spurs maintained the pressure, Kmita fired a winner with two minutes remaining after she guided the ball into the far corner past a frustrated McElroy.

Spurs Ladies: Chloe Morgan, Shannon Moloney, Sophie McLean (Rosie Kmita 60), Alex Keown, Avilla Bergin, Bianca Baptiste, Mollie Kmita, Wendy Martin, Jenna Schillaci, Josie Green (Riana Soobadoo 73), Kelley Blanchflower.
