TAUNTON’s Emily Syme made an instant impact on her debut for Yeovil Town Ladies on Sunday.

Having previously played for Bishops Lydeard Ladies and Richard Huish College, 18-year-old Syme was handed a start against London Bees in the Continental Cup.

The Bees took the lead, but then Syme won the ball in midfield and played a precise through ball for Olivia Fergusson to latch on to and equalise.

The group stage match finished 1-1 at The Hive, and the Bees won 4-3 on penalties to claim a bonus point.

The Lady Glovers’ next match is this Sunday, August 26 (ko 3pm), at home to Crystal Palace Ladies in Dorchester.
