QPR FC Women were denied victory by a last-minute equaliser against London rivals Dulwich Hamlet on Sunday afternoon.
The clash ended all square at Champion Hill after Ellie Searle’s opportunistic early second half strike was later cancelled out by a last gasp equaliser from Dulwich’s Lucy Monkman.
This was the R’s first game in the Spring Round Robin fixtures and a teaser of what to expect in next week’s semi-final in the Capital Women’s Cup against the same opponent.
The game started evenly with both teams sharing possession of the ball however, it was Rangers who had the first shot on target when Tiffany Skinner tried her luck from distance, but her shot was comfortably saved by Mia North in the Dulwich goal.
