SWINDON Spitfires produced possibly their best performance so far against previously unbeaten table-toppers Gloucester City.

The first 20 minutes produced four goals.

A superb cross by Natalie Ferris was knocked home on 10 minutes by Vicky Taylor, who added a second 10 minutes later after some excellent work by Mel Bristow.

In between, Gloucester City scored two goals of their own and the sides remained locked together for most of the half.

Both keepers were on form, denying a number of chances, but Spitfires regained the lead before half-time courtesy of an own goal.

The second half saw the Spitfires increase their workrate, and they increased their lead in the 60th minute when new signing Hayley Huckin turned the ball across the Gloucester goal where it was turned in by Bristow.

Swindon Spitfires: Becky Powell, Jo Lane. Bev Maull, Louise Slattery, Natalia Wilson, Natalie Ferris, Caroline Hook, Zofie Stepien, Jody Nicholls, Mel Bristow, Vicky Taylor, Gemma Ferris, Hayley Huckin.
