Ciren were dominant and the next chance fell to Chyna Collings who shot from 25yds, but her drive was palmed away by the Robins ‘keeper.
After 14 minutes it was 2-0 when Aimee Thomson volleyed home a Katie
Kingshott corner from close range. The rest of the half became a scrappy
affair with both sides making numerous mistakes on a greasy surface. Frances
Wilson had a fierce drive palmed away after 31 minutes but Ciren were
struggling to show their normal dominance.

but was cleared. Tthen Ciren wrapped up the game with two corners in five minutes as both times the Katie Kingshott delivery found firstly Chyna Collings and
then Sammie Smith to make the game safe.

hit the bottom of the post. The Cheltenham keepers bad run of luck
continued when a 25 yd strike from Elle Maynard somehow went through her
body and into the net to make it 6-0.
