The Isle of Man FA’s senior women’s side suffered penalty shoot-out heartbreak in the final of the Cherry Godfrey Cup on Saturday teatime.
Wayne Lisy’s reigning champions were beaten 6-5 on spot-kicks after drawing 1-1 with Jersey in the biennial tournament being played this weekend in Guernsey.
Peel’s Sarah Wignall had given the Manx a first-half lead only for Jersey to equalise with only minutes left.
With no extra-time the match went straight to penalties where the Channel Islanders triumphed.
In the third-fourth play-off earlier in the day, a Guernsey side, that had lost to the Isle of Man in Friday evening’s semi-finals, beat the Isle of Wight 5-1.
