Yeovil Town Ladies put in a valiant performance in Sunday's League Cup game with Premier League, National Division side Reading, but in the end went down 2-0 in a highly competitive match.

The Glovers matched the Royals in all departments, and perhaps even deserved to get a point in this group game, but in the end they had no answer to a first half brace from Mikaela Howell.

"I thought that we played really well," manager Steve Phelps said after the game. "We were playing a side that have just gone up into the National League, and who won their opening game last weekend to go second in that league. Playing them this week may have seemed daunting to some, but the girls took it in their stride and did really well."
