Scottish League Division 1

Inverness Ladies travelled to Falkirk and returned with another three points after a hard fought encounter on an energy sapping pitch to close the gap on League leaders Rangers. Early exchanges were pretty even before Inverness took the lead on 35mins when Karen Mason swept home a Rebecca Dempster corner kick and the lead was doubled on 40 mins when Natalie Bodiam netted from close range to make it 2-0 at the interval. Falkirk came out fighting in the second half and reduced the deficit on 57mins with a well taken goal but within a minute the energetic Finella Annand made it 3-1 with a stunning goal. She picked up the ball 35 yards from goal and surged passed several defenders and beat the keeper with a well placed shot into the bottom corner of the net. Leanne Calder made it four on 70 mins and although Falkirk pulled a goal back in the closing minutes Inverness had already secured their sixth successive League victory.
