Loreto, Beaufort 2 Alexandra College 1

Loreto, Beaufort won their first Senior Cup in 26 years, taking the trophy off the hands of Alexandra in dramatic style. Alex took the lead after a strong opening, Chloe McDermott getting on the end of a short corner.

But Zara Delaney created the chance for Beaufort to get back on level terms, driving through the heart of the Alex defence to set up Sarah Noonan for the equaliser before the half-time break.

And five minutes into a tense second period, youth international Hannah Matthews got the winner from Beaufort's very first short corner.
