An historic weekend for New Lambton Football Club, newly promoted to the Women’s Premier League.
Captained by former Matilda Tara Andrews, the Eagles opened the scoring in their debut match through a Stacey Day header.
Wallsend squared it up in the 44th minute after Libby Copus-Brown pounced on a loose ball.
New Lambton coach Keelan Hamilton was happy to take the point, admitting it wasn’t their best performance.
