Bradford City 2 -

Sun 4 May at Ossett Town FC |

Bradford City retained their
100% record for the season but only after an epic Cup Final encounter with
rivals Leeds City Vixens |
|
|
|
|
|
| Leeds were first out of the
blocks and the Bradford defence needed to be at their best to keep
the Vixens at bay but City finally began to make their way into
the game and almost took the lead on the half hour but the
woodwork came to the Vixens rescue and the game remained without a
goal at the half time break. |

| The second half produced
plenty of end to end action to keep the supporters on their toes
and the game could have gone either way but it was Bradford who
eventually made the breakthrough when Claire Fawcett stayed cool
to place the ball into the bottom corner of the net. |
|
|
|
The Vixens continued to threaten and deserved to get something for
their part in a highly entertaining game but when Fawcett doubled
City's lead five minutes from time there was no way back for the
Vixens.
