      1. 97'

        Full time. It finishes 0 – 0 at the Newport Stadium.

      2. 95'

        Roche fires her free kick straight at O’Sullivan-Jones and that could be the last chance of the game.

      3. 93'

        Defended well by Ellie-Mai Sanford who earns a minor head injury for her troubles.

        It stops play for a moment, but she is up and keen to play on.

        And then there is yet another free kick given for Lewes, in shooting range.

      4. 93'

        Free kick Lewes. Roche to deliver.

      5. 92'

        Sensible defending by Ellie-Mai Sanford as she heads the ball out for a throw in.

        But it gives Lewes the ball up the field.

      6. 89'

        Gready breaks away but loses the ball and commits a foul.

      7. 89'

        One minute to go of regulation time and it’s on a knife edge this game.

      8. 88'

        Fatuga Dada latches on to a long ball. After allowing the ball to bounce twice, she has a volley that flies wide.

      9. 87'

        CHANCE!

        Asker breaks away down the left and plays a great ball into Gregson. The defender gets their first but can only head it as far as Pearce on the edge of the area.

        Her first time volley curls just wide of the top left corner. Almost.

      10. Yellow Card

        85'

        Ellie-Mai Sanford

      11. 84'

        Roche swings in a free kick which is again attacked by Hanna Godfrey. This time, her header finds the target but O’Sullivan Jones keeps it out.

      12. 80'

        Gilligan comes off for Kayla Ginger, as Lewes role the dice in the last ten minutes.

      13. 75'

        SAVE!

        It’s a brilliant ball across the goal to Connolly-Brame who was arriving at the back post.

        O’Sullivan-Jones denies her from point blank range. From the resulting corner there is a clash of heads

        After a tense wait, the referee talks to the linesman. Will she give a penalty?

        NO. Amidst complaints from Lewes and their fans, the ref gives a drop ball.

      14. 72'

        Casi Gregson concedes a foul trying to track back.

        It’s been a frustrating second half so far for the young forward.

        From the free kick, Godfrey heads wide.

      15. 68'

        The game has become quite back and forth now. No real control asserted on this game by either team,

      16. 62'

        On comes Fatuga-Dada in places of Carpenter. Immediately she puts Lloyd and O’Sullivan-Jones under pressure but the Gwalia pair get the ball away.

      17. 60'

        The hosts have wrestled back some control of this game. It looks like Lewes are going to answer Gwalia’s chances by bringing on Adekite Fatuga-Dada. A very dangerous player indeed.

      18. 58'

        Nolan has been down a lot today, but continues to get up.

        This time she can’t continue. Bonnie Gready has replaced her.

      19. 55'

        The flag goes up but Kylie Nolan continues to chase a loose ball and is brought to the ground. It looks like a sore one for Nolan who is getting treatment.

      20. 52'

        HOW?

        Gwalia go close again! Emily Moore clears out Kylie Nolan to punch the ball away. With both on the ground, the ball bounces to Ellie-Mai Sanford who chips it goalward. But her effort hits the inside of the post and Lewes clear. It is somehow still level.

      21. 51'

        Glorious opportunity!

        Kylie Nolan races away and is found in the area, It’s her against Emily Moore. Moore makes a great stop.

      22. 50'

        Lewes have started the second half on top, high in energy. Gwalia United need to hold on to the ball.

      23. Yellow Card

        47'

        Hannah Godfrey

      24. 47'

        Big challenge on Kylie Nolan by Hannah Godfrey. Godfrey goes in the book.

      25. 46'

        We are back underway for the second half.

      26. 45'

        Half time. It’s 0 – 0 and at the moment, that’s a fair reflection on the game thus far.

      27. 44'

        As the first half draws to a close, it’s anyone’s game. Big chances on both sides. Just that bit of magic needed to break the deadlock.

        How many times this season has that magic gone against Gwalia?

        Hopefully it’s different this afternoon.

      28. 43'

        Paula Howells takes on Gwalia’s midfield and gets past it. Then she lets fly but can’t it the target from range.

      29. 37'

        Emily Moore fluffs her pass and Gwalia intercept.

        Pearce the play through Asker who was tackled just before she could let fly.

      30. 35'

        A nasty collision leaves Nolan down. Gwalia win the free kick and the striker fortunately is okay to play on.

      31. 31'

        Gregson tries to work space in the area but she’s tackled. The ball falls to Asker who hits it first time. But it’s a good block by a woman in white.

      32. 27'

        UNBELIEVABLE!

        Lewes looked certain to score.

        A shot came in from close range which was fumbled by O’Sullivan-Jones on to the post.

        The ball bounced back across the goal before Cerys Jones hooked it away.

      33. 26'

        Up the other end, Nolan looks to test the left back, and does.

        She turns one way, and then the other, but slips on her third direction change.

      34. 25'

        Lewes swing another corner in and it’s dealt with.

        But Gwalia don’t look all too comfortable with these set pieces.

      35. 21'

        Chance!

        Lewes swing a corner in and somehow the ball is headed goalward. Cerys Jones saves her team with a header off the line.

      36. 19'

        HUGE CHANCE!

        Casi Gregson drives into the area with the ball and turns a defender inside out. Her shot was blocked at the last moment, and the ball trickled wide.

      37. 15'

        Ruby Scahill commits Gwalia United’s 3rd foul within 15 minutes. Lewes swing the ball in but nobody’s there to attack it.

      38. 13'

        Handball?

        A high ball comes into the area and Lucy Connolly-Brame controls it. Her arm was outstretched which prompted handball shouts.

        Lewes broke away after the ref ignored the shouts, and Katie Gilligan ended up with a shot on the edge of the area. The ball went just wide.

      39. 10'

        High pressure from the hosts forces an error and gives them a throw in up the field.

        It comes to nothing and Lewes clear they’re lines.

      40. 8'

        Chance.

        A free kick is played into the area and attacked by Hannah Godfrey.

        Her header goes over the bar.

      41. 7'

        The ball finds its way to Manon Pearce in space.

        She lets fly a wonderful outside of the boot pass. Tia Asker was running onto it in the area but failed to get to the ball.

      42. 5'

        Gwalia’s first attack runs out of play.

        Note, Casi Gregson starts her first game since her injury at the end of 2024.
