Division 2NE leaders Harleston Magpies II lost their 100pc record this season as they lost 1-0 at home to Ipswich & East Suffolk.

As tensions rose in ther second half, an Ipswich player received a green card. In the last few minutes of the game, Magpies won two short corners but they were unable to convert either as the visitors' keeper produced an inspired display.

Despite suffering their first defeat, Magpies remain 16 points clear after second-placed Sprowston also lost, 4-2 at North Walsham.

The hosts opened the scoring with a well-taken goal from Ellen Vanlint early in the first half. Sprowston responded and equalised soon afterwards.

Sprowston again drew level in the second half from a short corner before Lucy Spencer put Walsham back in front and the same player scored her second to make the points safe.

Broadland recorded a 4-0 win at Old Buckenham.

Tracey Buxton put the visitors ahead in the first half and a double strike after the break from Dani Parke strengthened Broadland's grip on the game. Buxton sealed the win for Broadland with her second of the game.
