United women win first home game

Two late goals saw Torquay United women come from behind to gain a 3-2 win over rivals Sherborne Town yesterday (Sunday 14 September).

Playing their first home fixture of the South West Women's League Premier Division season at Plainmoor - with the Weltch Media logo on their shorts - United took the lead through Lily Hilton, but were level at half-time, and went 2-1 down after the break.

However, two goals in the last nine minutes secured the win for Torquay - the equaliser from Lily and the winner from Georgie Knott.

The Devon team is aiming for promotion from the fifth tier back into the FA National League, having narrowly missed out last season.

As we reported last month, we won the raffle to be the team's shorts sponsor, with our logo on the shorts for all home and away games throughout the season.
