Women's Football: Dramatic late strike from Scott seals derby win for Vixens

Former-Vixens striker Sarah Danby had put Town 2-0 up following Katie Nutter’s opener, but 16-year-old Ebony Njie and Nikki Berko drew the Vixens level before Scott’s late strike completed Guiseley’s revenge over Huddersfield for last season’s penalty defeat.
