Newcastle United Women began their Women’s Super League 2 season in perfect fashion with an impressive 2-0 home win over Wolverhampton Wanderers Women.
This was the first time that United began a campaign in the WSL2 at home since entering the league in 2024, and they did not disappoint in front of a 1671-strong crowd at the Gateshead International Stadium.
It was a whirlwind start from United that saw them secure all three points, with Beth Lumsden scoring after just eight minutes before a Georgia Marshall own goal put United in total control.
The Lasses dominated both possession and chances throughout the game, while Anna Tamminen was not forced into any troubling saves as she started the season with a clean sheet.
United came flying out of the blocks to kick off their season at home with just 120 seconds on the clock, and Kathleen McGovern forced Emily Orman into a save at her near post after the Scotland international latched onto Martha Thomas’ flick-on in the box.
While Newcastle were denied early on by Orman, she could do little six minutes later to stop Lumsden. McGovern glided across the middle of the pitch, drifting past two Wolves players before cutting open the defence with a perfect pass for United’s number 26, who beat the on-rushing Orman to poke the ball beyond her and open the scoring.
