Final crunch!
Sarah Danby then had two decent efforts, the first crashing against the Oughtibridge bar and the second saved by the keeper.
Town started the second half strongly and, two minutes in, Sowerby fired just wide.
A minute later, however, she made amends when she calmly placed the ball past the Oughtibridge keeper for a 2-0 lead.
The referee wasn’t helping Town’s cause, with a number of high and late challenges going unpunished.
With 64 minutes gone, Danby was taken down in the centre circle, but the referee waved play on and Oughtibridge launched the ball forward.
As keeper Laura Carter went up for it, she appeared to be fouled and Oughtibridge slotted the ball home to get back within touching distance.
Needless to say Town’s players weren’t happy, and four yellow cards were shown in that one instant, all for dissent.
Town continued to press and Sowerby had another effort deflected wide of the target as she looked for a hat trick.
Oughtibridge applied some pressure in the final few minutes but Town held on for a deserved win and place in the final.
