Sweetman-Kirk nets late winner as Women beat Yeovil

The No.9 fired a double as she also slotted home a penalty to help Vicky Jepson’s side claim a vital three points in the Women’s Super League.

Liverpool FC Women started brightly and Christie Murray went close with a free-kick from 25-yards out that was superbly kept out by Meghan Walsh.

On 25 minutes the Reds were awarded a penalty when winger Yana Daniels was brought down by Walsh, and Sweetman-Kirk duly stepped up to make no mistake for the opening goal.

Six minutes into the second half the home side were back on level terms when Emily Donovan pounced to make it 1-1.
