THE JOURNEY SO FAR
The Squad Have Been in Great Form
Borough entered the campaign in the First Round Proper beating Lincoln City 7-0 at home. A record breaking game, with winger Angela Nixon potentially achieving the fastest hat trick in women’s professional football, securing 3 goals in 5 minutes 36 seconds.
Despite difficult weather conditions in the second round, Borough again displayed goal scoring might beating Peterborough United 7-1. A highly possessive game, the visitors were only able to get through the hosts effective defence scoring in 90+2 minutes.
During the last FA Cup game of 2024, Borough beat Mancunian Unity 3-0 at home. Borough broke the deadlock in the 26th minute with a half-volley from Alanta Brown sending the ball into the bottom corner. Subsequent goals at 72 minutes from Kelis Barton and 79 minutes from Yasmin Mosby sealed a place in round four.
The Women’s FA Cup Fourth Round Proper is the first away game in the Cup for the team and WSL teams have now entered the competition.
“We are really looking forward to this weekends FA Cup match. The squad have been in great form recently winning seven games in a row, only conceding one goal across three competitions so we are full of confidence and looking to continue this run.
London Bees play good football and they have had a strong season themselves and we know we will have to perform well on the day to progress into the next round.”
