Peterborough United Women completed a hat-trick of National League wins with a hard-fought 3-2 success over Burton Albion at the idverde Training Ground.

But two goals in four minutes from Niamh Connor and Jess Driscoll saw Posh in front at the break.

Beatroz Borque’s beautiful curling effort sealed the game for Posh, although they had to survive a nervy final few minutes after Burton pulled a goal back.
