About this listen

Newcastle United Women claimed derby bragging rights with a 3-1 victory over Sunderland Women at St James’ Park.


The Tyne-Wear clash came alive in the second half after a goalless opening period, with Deanna Cooper breaking the deadlock before substitute Emily Murphy struck twice to seal the win. Sunderland briefly threatened a comeback when Kiera Barry pulled one back, but it wasn’t enough to halt Newcastle’s momentum. The match also saw a pivotal moment early on when Anna Tamminen saved Eleanor Dale’s penalty, keeping the Magpies level before their surge. In front of a lively crowd of 18,972, Newcastle extended their unbeaten run under interim boss Claire Ditchburn and climbed to fourth in the Women’s Super League 2 table, while Sunderland’s struggles continued as they fell to their eighth game without a win.
