Sunderland AFC Ladies 0-1 Celtic FC Women
Sunderland Ladiesâ opening pre-season match of 2021-22 ended in a slender defeat on Thursday night as a late and unlucky Chloe Warrington goal decided the match in the Glasgow sideâs favour.
A spirited performance in demanding physical conditions earned credit for Melanie Reayâs Lasses, who came close to themselves opening the scoring on various occasions.
Reay had just 13 players to select from due to numerous players being unavailable due to circumstances ranging from international duty, Covid-19 and injury.
Abbey Joice earned plaudits for her display in the centre of the park, and it was the midfielder who tested Celtic goalkeeper Chloe Logan with a low drive from distance.
