The city side won 2-1 at Chestnut Avenue against Premier Division title rivals Oughtibridge War Memorial LFC thanks to goals by sisters Cassie and Katie Steward.

That leaves them just a point behind table-toppers Leicester City with two games in hand.

Star, who are now the only unbeaten team in the Premier Division, are next in action on Wednesday (April 4) away to Kettering.
