Lucy Reeves scored as the Lionesses were 3-1 down at half time.

They pulled one back as the lively Rhea Horner had a cross/shot that deflected in off the full back.

The Lionesses were deservedly level as a Leigha Cook’s drive from 20 yards found the bottom corner.
The Lionesses then conceded two late goals and were sent crashing out of the competition.
