The Belles started brightly, putting early pressure on the Helston goal. The Helston defence stood firm and fought hard to prevent the Belles from scoring. Then it was the Belles turn to defend and they did so well with goalkeeper Kayleigh pulling off a couple of great saves.

More pressure from the Belles saw the midfield of Beth T and Sarah playing some good passing football into Beth W up front. The pressure eventually told with Beth W scoring in the midst of a goal mouth scramble, so the Belles went in at half time one nil up.

The Belles came out for the second half determined to build on their lead. They attacked the Helston goal and their pressure told with Beth W scoring her second.

A quick goal kick from goalkeeper Kayleigh to Emma who knocked the ball into the path of striker Beth W lead to the Belles third goal and a hat-trick for Beth W.

More strong running and tackling from the midfield pairing of Beth T and Sarah lead to Beth W scoring a fourth goal. Shortly after Sarah fired a free-kick just over the Helston goal.

A late cross into the Helston box from Beth T lead to one of the Helston players knocking the ball into her own net, giving the Belles their fifth goal.
