Ipswich East Suffolk II 3 Carlton Park 2

Ipswich East Suffolk II shortened Carlton Park's chances of promotion with this win.

IES started very lively and quickly put pressure on the Park defence. They had an early breakthrough when a penalty corner resulted in a goal.

IES quickly added the second when they broke away and finished off with a clinical shot. Park knew they had to up their game and got themselves more involved. They pulled a goal back when a shot by Vicky Le Fanu was saved but Denise Manning slotted in the rebound.

Park then seemed to find more of the form they are used to and continued to add pressure on the IES defence. In the second half the game was very end-to-end and Michelle Scarf worked tirelessly in defence tracking back. Park then got the equaliser from a penalty corner when a Sarah Whatling strike was pushed over the line by Wendy Corneby.

Park still didn't look comfortable and IES kept moving the ball well in midfield and were finding their advancing attackers. IES scored the winner from a quickly taken free hit which was slotted home.
