Goals from Cheyenne Flynn and Lily Whitelock earned the Bees a massive three points on the road, as they defeated Dulwich Hamlet 3–1 at Champion Hill.
The visitors made a flying start, finding the net within the opening two minutes.
A well-delivered corner from Millie Isherwood met the head of Flynn in the centre of the box, and she made no mistake, nodding the ball into the top corner to give the Bees an early lead.
The tempo remained high as the Bees pushed for a second, with Shamoy Campbell delivering a series of dangerous crosses to test the Dulwich defence.
Around ten minutes in, Flynn was brought down inside the area, and the referee pointed straight to the spot.
Up stepped Whitelock, who calmly slotted the penalty home to double the advantage.
Dulwich began to grow into the half, looking for a route back into the game, but the Bees stayed organised and continued to threaten going forward.
Despite strong defending, the hosts eventually pulled one back, denying Tia Ginn a clean sheet as Asia Harbour Brown found the target.
Just before the break, Isherwood thought she had a chance to restore the two-goal cushion, but the flag was raised for offside moments before the half-time whistle.
Half-Time: Dulwich Hamlet 1–2 London Bees
After the restart, Dulwich enjoyed more of the ball and pressed high as they tried to level the score, forcing the Bees to stay compact and disciplined.
Campbell broke forward on a promising counterattack but was again ruled offside as the Bees sought to regain control.
Manager Dan McKimm made a double change midway through the half, introducing Betty Larkin and Aimee Durn for Isherwood and Megan Burrows.
Shortly after, play was halted when Mira Hoteit picked up an injury and was later substituted for Thea Budden.
With fifteen minutes remaining, the Bees began to reassert themselves in the final third, and their persistence paid off.
Whitelock produced a moment of brilliance, chipping the goalkeeper from distance to seal the win and claim her second goal of the afternoon.
In the closing stages, Sandra Martins and Ryah Vyse came on for Campbell and Whitelock to help see out the result.
Moments later, the referee’s whistle confirmed a well-earned victory, adding another valuable three points to the table for the Bees.
