Pompey Women Host Oxford On Sunday – News – Portsmouth
Pompey Women return to National League action on Sunday when they welcome Oxford to Westleigh Park (2pm kick-off).
Jay Sadler’s side come into the game on the back of a resounding 8-0 victory at Chatham last weekend.
Georgie Freeland and Dani Lane both bagged a brace in Kent, while Emma Jones, Beth Lumsden and Emily Pitman were also on the scoresheet before an own-goal completed the rout.
This weekend will see the Blues in action on home soil since a resounding 9-0 success against Cardiff at the start of the month.
Sophie Quirk and Jones grabbed a double either side of the interval on that occasion, with Dani Lane came off the bench to hit a 17-minute hat-trick.
Annie Rolf also contributed to the haul against the Welsh outfit, while Pitman rounded things off in stoppage-time.
While Pompey are sitting fourth in the embryonic National League standings – holding a game in hand on all the sides above them – their next opponents are two places and the same number of points further back.
Oxford have won two of their opening five league fixtures, including last Sunday’s comfortable 5-0 home win over Plymouth.
