Unfancied Cable Beach dig deep to upset the Old Girls

Underdogs Cable Beach have managed to upset the Old Girls and achieve their second win of the season.

It was an even start to the match with both teams quick to score from the get-go, although it was the Old Girls who took an early lead through Christie Milenkovic.

However, Cable Beach were able to catch up and level the scores although the Old Girls managed to get back in front by quarter-time.

An injury to Raya Sara left the Old Girls undermanned; however, they were able to maintain their lead.

After the main break Cable Beach rallied again and had taken the lead by three-quarter-time.
