Sheffield & Hallamshire Women’s County Cup final (KO 10.30am) at Doncaster Rovers’ Eco-Power Stadium sees Barnsley Women renewing their friendly rivalry with neighbours Huddersfield Town Women
Despite appeals to SHFA this fixture takes precedent over the St James Park fixture vs Newcastle Utd Women this weekend.
The two teams will meet again to contest a fifth consecutive County Cup final, with the Terriers looking to avenge their 2019 penalty heartbreak after losing 4-2 on penalties to the Reds, despite fighting back from two goals down and scoring a last-minute equaliser.
Town Women lifted the trophy in 2017 and 2018, and are hoping to add a third County Cup final win to their honours, whilst Barnsley Women lifted in 2016 and 2019.
Huddersfield Town Women’s first team had to overcome their own development side to reach this year’s final, winning 5-1 against their counterparts in the semi-finals.
Barnsley Women, the current holders of the competition, have their sights set on a third County Cup final success.
The Reds beat Oughtibridge WM Women 4-0 in the semi-finals to book their place in this year’s final.
