Boro started the strongest and it was soon 1-0 early on as winger Chloe McArthur went on a mazy run in to the box and finished low past the keeper. But Northallerton kept rallying and a fine strike levelled the scores.

Boro regained the lead after a long throw from Matilda Jordan found Lacey O’Hara, who fired at goal but It was Sophie Overfield at the far post who steered the ball home to make it 2-1 then O’Hara raced clear to finish well giving the keeper no chance.

In the second half Boro Sophie Overfield fired a fine shot into the top corner, but Northallerton again hit back scoring to make it 4-2.

Straight from kick-off Boro added a fifth when McArthur was sent clear down the wing and fired an unstoppable shot into the top corner and O’Hara rounded off the scoring with a fine finish.

In a fantastic all-round display, defenders Sophie Grey, Molly Lassey and Grace Leach shone, but the whole team were awarded girl of the game.
