Rachel Rowe’s last-gasp brace fired Reading to a precious 2-1 win over Leicester in their early season Barclays Women’s Super League six-pointer.
Natasha Flint looked to have led the Foxes to a first win of the season in a nervy clash between two sides. The striker broke the deadlock on 36 minutes when she drove low past the keeper from outside the box having been found superbly by Shannon O’Brien.
But as the seconds ebbed away Rowe’s corner crept in through bodies to level terms. Shortly after, she then jinked into space and fired past Kirstie Levell to spark pandemonium.
