YEOVIL Town Ladies boss Steve Phelps was delighted at his side's fighting spirit in yesterday's FA Women's Fourth Round clash at Norwich City.

The Glovers came from a goal behind to defeat the Canaries with second-half strikes from Kayleigh Nardiello, Kim Turner and Jemma Tewkesbury.

Now the Glovers are set to face Nottingham Forest at Somerton on Sunday (Feb 14) in the Fifth Round.

And Phelps said: "What a superb win!.

"It was a tough tie, and they caused us a lot of problems in the first half, but we came back well in the second to take the game.

"It was hard fought, but every girl played her part, and in the end it was a tremendous win."

And Phelps added: "I am delighted for the players, delighted for the club and for everyone connected with the club."
