Match Report

TTA report

Bottom of the league Hamilton defended poorly, their keeper being suspect at 2 of the goals. Sharp helped himself to a 10-min hat-trick (23, 29 and 33) with a 4th a min into the second half for good measure after Hamilton had reduced the lead (38). Husband's pen (51) made it 5.
