FC PHOENIX saw their title ambitions in the Central Warwickshire Under-14 Girls League brought to an end when they went down 5-4 at home to lowly Tamworth Ladies.

Phoenix went in at half-time leading 3-2 after goals from Simone Quinn, Lara Wooles and Chelsey Snead but, after the break and with the wind behind them, Tamworth quickly hit back to lead 4-3.

Leya Lathem scored a fine individual goal to level once again but, going in search of the winner that would have kept them in the title race, Phoenix were hit on the break as Tamworth grabbed a late winner.
