Late agony for Cardea Ladies, but Deeping Rangers finish their first season in magnificent style, plus penalty shootouts galore in the Junior Alliance

​Sofia Aaragosa fired the city side ahead five minutes into the second-half at Newport Pagnell only for the home side to equalise from the penalty spot on 75 minutes.

And Cardea, who picked up their first point of the season the week before, then suffered the heartbreak of an injury time winning goal for Pagnell.

Fifth placed Stamford AFC were held to a 1-1 home draw by New Bradwell St Peter FC. Sophie Harris scored for Stamford.

Mid-table Cardea Reserves went down 5-2 at St Ives Town Reserves in Cambs Division Two. Anna Langa scored both of the Cardea goals.

Deeping Rangers finished a creditable first season in the Lincs Womens South Division in fine style.
