The second half saw IES continue to push forward, with some great support work down the left by Kerry Kemp.
The only goal of the game came from a fluid move down the right hand side, with newcomer Lucy Bliss battling her way through to the back line and shooting across the goal mouth, which Annette White picked up on the turn and managed to sneak underneath the Bourne keeper.
Although Bourne continued to press the IES goal, the visitors stood firm and travelled home with a very well deserved win.
