There was plenty of fizz on the surface but not much in terms of champagne football. The conditions were bleak. Grey skies, drizzle in the air and a slippery surface prevented both sides from getting their foot on the ball.

Huddersfield Town Women manager Glen Preston said: “The conditions really suited [Cheadle Town Stingers’] game.

“I thought we still tried to play football in those tough conditions.

“The concentration levels and discipline of the back line today were fabulous. They deserve a lot of credit because today was really difficult to play in. Tough circumstances, tough pitch and a tough opposition who love playing these conditions.”
