Three minutes to go here at Vicarage road. Some news from Essex as Billericay have gone one nil down to Oxford. If it remains like that, Gwalia will have secured safety this season.

Chance.
Bianca Baptiste hits the bar with tantalizing curler.

It’s a brace for Perry after some messy action at the goal line. But it is another simple finish for Watford’s third of the afternoon.

Close.
Watford have turned up the heat and are heaping pressure on Yas Davies. Gwalia scramble to clear the ball this time but Watford are coming back for more.

POST!
Coral Haines slides in Jessie Gale who should square it but goes alone and her effort hits the post.
-
29'
Ellie-Mai Sanford looks to slide in Casi Gregson who seemingly gets to the ball ahead of Cull. The Hornets goalkeeper dives and takes Gregson down. The referee signals a corner instead of a penalty,
Gwalia are starting to knock on the door.

27'
Gwalia win the ball high up the field, and Ellie-Mai Sanford sees an opening and has a pop. But her low driven shot is taken in by Cull.
-
23'
Lachante Paul uses some eloquent skill to fashion a shot from the left. Her curler goes over the bar. It is probably the best sight of goal in this half thus far.
-
19'
Gwalia work the ball up the field well. A cross from the left threatens to cause trouble but it was deflected into the hands of Cull.
-
15'
Close! Watford strike the first chance of the game. A ball comes in from the right and Davies comes to collect. She misses the ball but luckily, so does the Watford striker. And the danger clears itself.
-
6'
It’s a cagey start to the game. No real spells of possession or chances for either side. Perhaps it is a case of getting used to the surroundings at Vicarage Road.
