A good start by Haverhill continued as they took a point from a game they were unlucky not to take all three from.

Shelley Farr continued her good start with the side this season as she scored the first two of the Haverhill goals, her first coming with a 25 yard shot into the top corner of the net and, after Barking found an equaliser, Farr's free kick regained the hosts' single goal lead.

Rachel Mann then got in on the act to slot the ball past the away goalkeeper from a one-on-one situation to give her side a 3-1 lead at the break.

With Mann and Louise Anderson having chances on goal and Amanda Everett producing a Player of the Match performance it was poor defending that allowed Barking to score twice in the second period and take a point back with them, although the home side were unlucky not to be awarded a penalty kick when the advantage was played by the referee and the resultant shot was saved.
