Aberdeen FC Women kept up their impressive run of form with a 3-1 victory against St Johnstone at McDiarmid Park.

The Reds have now won 12 of their 13 SWPL 2 fixtures and sit six points clear at the top of the table with five games remaining.

However, the Dons hit back quickly and Ogilvie restored parity six minutes later.
And just two minutes later Aberdeen took the lead with Ogilvie again on target.
