With the hosts needing three points to avoid relegation at Ashton Gate, it pointed towards a tough encounter for Gareth Taylor’s team who, ourselves, aimed to enhance our title credentials.
This rang true in a goalless first half which saw a brave and valiant Vixens defence keep the visitors out.
However, Mary Fowler injected the match with fresh life following the interval with a stinging drive into the top corner before doubling our advantage soon after when sliding home Lauren Hemp’s pinpoint cross.
An unfortunate Amy Rodgers own goal followed by Alex Greenwood’s first of the season in second-half stoppage time added the gloss to what could be a crucial victory in this term’s fierce title race.
