Ipswich Town Women resumed their season following the lockdown with a comprehensive 9-2 FA Cup first round victory at Harlow Town this afternoon with Georgia Allen netting a hat-trick, Natasha Thomas and Eloise King two each, and Sophie Peskett and Abbie Lafayette one apiece.
Thomas opened the scoring in only the fifth minute with a header from Town’s first attack, the two minutes later Allen made it 2-0 with her first of the afternoon when she followed up to rebound after the keeper had failed to keep hold of the ball.
