CHERRIES women edged past Selsey 1-0 at the weekend to send them second in the FA Women’s National League South West Division One.

Summer signing Jess Treweek’s goal was the only difference in a tight affair at Macra Community Stadium.

Boss Steve Cuss was pleased with both the result and the performance, telling afcb.co.uk: "It was a really good performance and I'd put it up there with one of our best performances of the season.

"I thought we defended strongly and I really enjoyed the way we passed the ball to get into the final third.

“We probably had a few more chances to score, we just needed to get that final ball right, but our overall play was very strong.

"It was good on the eye, a good all round performance and one that was backed up with some great defending and a clean sheet. It was a really important win for us." 

"We said as a group that the next few league matches will be really important to keep pushing ourselves up that table and put a bit of pressure on the teams above us.

"It's an important run of games and we want to try to get a positive result in every single game."
