Women's Football: Sheffield United set for Continental Cup tie as Barnsley progress in FA Cup

They drew 2-2 at home to bottom side Charlton Athletic last weekend but this Sunday sees their attention turn to the Continental League Cup when they host Blackburn Rovers at OLP (2pm).

Barnsley reached the first round proper of the Women’s FA Cup thanks to a 3-0 victory at Leeds United, who fielded three ex-Reds in their team.

Lissa Woodhouse and Annie Ward netted in the closing minutes to add to an opener from Drew Greene just past the hour mark.

Barnsley's reward is a trip to Crewe, who they beat twice last season.

After three seasons of struggle, things are looking up for Rotherham United.

Currently top of the East Midlands League Premier Division, they enjoyed a 7-2 home win over Worksop Town Women in the League Cup first round.

Bradie Wild bagged a hat-trick and there were also braces for Lucy Ridley and Nat Shaw.

Jasmine Saxton nettted twice for Worksop who, despite being a player short throughout, gave their hosts a good run for their money.

Chesterfield were 7-0 winners in their tie at Corby who had a player dismissed just before the half hour, but the game was effectively already over as Chesterfield had raced into a four-goal inside 15 minutes.

Gina Camfield (3), Paige Singleton (2), Gemma Nuttall and Ami Buzzeo were the players on target.

Millmoor hammered Dronfield Town Development 10-1 in the Krukowski Cup, with debutant Ruby Markham scoring four.
