made a fantasic diving<br />
save to deny a powerful<br />
half volley inside the<br />
box. The game then<br />
opened up as both<br />
teams looked to find<br />
the back of the net.<br />
EUHV then doubled<br />
their lead on the 75th<br />
minute and it was<br />
Nichola Sturrock again<br />
who was instrumental<br />
in creating the goal. Her<br />
through ball was met<br />
calmy by Anna Hume to<br />
slot past the oncoming<br />
Hearts goalkeeper, 2-0.<br />
Unfortunately the<br />
lead was diminished to<br />
only one goal within 5<br />
minutes of Anna Hume<br />
scoring. After calls for<br />
offside and an initial<br />
save from Parker-Smith<br />
Hearts managed to find<br />
the back of the net on<br />
the 80th minute. Hearts<br />
continued to press<br />
and were awarded a<br />
penalty only 3 minutes<br />
later following a late<br />
challenge by Beth<br />
Sutherland<br />
in the<br />
penalty area.<br />

goal with the rebound<br />
then cleared by EUHV<br />
defenders.<br />
With only five minutes<br />
plus a couple of injury<br />
time minutes added on<br />
it was a well managed<br />
final spell for EUHV<br />
to see out the game.<br />
Hearts did have one<br />
final chance on the<br />
stroke of the final<br />
whistle but could only<br />
shoot wide.<br />
