Two goals from Calleigh Hedley ensured Guernsey FC Women kept their unbeaten record in their first season in English football.

Hedley - the division's top scorer - struck twice as the Green Lionesses twice came from two goals down to draw 3-3 at Bournemouth Sports reserve side in Southern Region Women's Football League Division One South.

The point puts Guernsey top of the early table - the islanders are one of just two sides to have played twice this season.

Izzy Weatherley had put the hosts 2-0 up in the opening 20 minutes before Aimee Ogier cut the deficit from close range on the half-hour mark.

Weatherley completed her hat-trick soon after but Hedley made it 3-2 moments later.

Headley ensured Guernsey came away from Dorset with a point when she tapped in after Candice Bougourd's free-kick had hit the bar.

The strike took Hedley's tally to eight goals in two games this season after she struck six times in Guernsey 7-5 win over Wimborne Town in the opening game of the season.
