The substitute played a part in Brentford’s equaliser with Payne linking up with the side’s top scorer Chelsie Berry, who slotted the ball home.

Brentford were playing with more confidence following their goal and nearly made it 2-1 when Lillie Elsbury took a shot from distance.

Her powerful strike was headed for the top corner, but the Camden keeper made a smart stop to keep the ball out.

Brentford were struck by some bad luck as Alicia Henry, who is a vital centre-back for the side was forced off the pitch due to injury.

Just five minutes later, Camden doubled their lead as they hit Brentford on the counter and made the hosts pay.

On 75 minutes, Camden made it three this time it was a long-range shot which left Freya Walker with no chance.

The home side showed incredible fight to continue to look for a route back into the game and were unfortunate not to at least pull one goal back.

Elsbury showed a piece of quality from a free-kick from distance but her effort hit the post before bouncing out of play.

Camden defended their lead well and managed to see out what was a positive result for the visitors.
