Guernsey FC Women fought back from a two-goal deficit at Bournemouth Sports Reserves to earn a point in their first away game in the UK women’s football pyramid.
The Green Lionesses trailed 2-0 and 3-1 in the first half, and got back on level terms early in the second half.
Izzy Weatherley put the hosts in the driving seat with a brace inside 20 minutes. But on the half hour, Aimee Ogier pounced from close range as Maya Newsam parried Candice Bougourd’s corner.
Weatherley completed her hat-trick soon after to restore the hosts’ cushion, but Calleigh Hedley renewed her side’s hope by pulling it back to 3-2 within moments of the restart.
Hedleigh lobbed the keeper fives minutes into the second half after Bougourd’s free-kick bounced down off the crossbar, completing the comeback and earning a useful point for Anna Gauvain’s side.
The Green Lionesses top the Southern Region Women’s Football League Division one on four points, but largely because all the other teams in the league had an FA Cup fixture over the weekend.
The Sarnians are on the road again next Sunday as they head to Farnham Town.
