Brentford Women concede three-goal lead twice to draw with Watford

Brentford's Women twice let a three-goal lead slip as they drew 6-6 with Watford Development in a memorable encounter.

The Bees fell behind early on but hit back to lead 2-1 and then took a 5-2 advantage.

They held a 6-3 lead in the second half but conceded three late goals to give Watford a share of the spoils.

The hosts scored the opening goal but Ashley Cheatley headed home a Lucy Easton corner and then weaved her way through to make it 2-1.

Watford levelled from a free kick but Cheatley got on to a cross from Lisa Grant to make it 3-2 and complete her hat-trick.

Grant could have made it four before Cheatley got on to a loose ball to finish well.

The Bees went in at the break 4-2 ahead and Cheatley had all four.

And moments after the re-start Sophie Lee made it five for The Bees, scoring from a corner.

Watford grabbed another but the game appeared to be over when Claire Richardson made it 6-3 with an overhead kick.

But Watford had other ideas, they pulled one back before a long-range strike made it 6-5.

In the dying minutes the home side scrambled the ball home to make it 6-6 and earn a point.

The Bees remain sixth in the table.
