Heartbreak after dramatic game at Ashbourne

Valkyrs ladies are out of the England Hockey Investec Women's Tier 3 Championship after a thrilling struggle away to Ashbourne.

The game ended 3-3 with Andrea Littlejohns on target twice and Amy Speed with the other goal.

The sides still couldn't be separated after the game went to a penalty flick shoot out.

A marathon sudden-death competition eventually resulted in Valkyrs going out 13-12.

Valkyrs had a bye in the first round and beat Ramsey 1-0 in the previous round.
