Baldock recaptued their form against a very resilient Leverstock Green side.
The 3-3 all draw was such a scintillating game that any observers left with neck pains after watching the end-to-end football.
Jodie Beaumont opened the scoring early on for the visitors with a sublime goal but 20 minutes into the game Becki Day was taken from the field after sustaining an injury,
Manager Colin Little was left with no choice but to replace her with the only substitute available, but the replacement Louise Shephard was on her way back from injury herself.
Baldock did well to keep their lead, but two minutes into first half injury team they conceeded an equaliser.

The second half was just as exciting as the first, with both teams going at it hammer and tongs.
Michelle Smith found the back of the net for Baldock but Leverstock levelled the score once again with a brilliant goal from their fast paced striker Nicci Hollick.
The best goal began at the magical feet of Chloe Payne.
The left back received the ball and passed it to Natasha Little who turned the home side's right back inside out and executed a perfectly weighted ball to a waiting Smith .
The striker made no mistake and knocked the ball home for her second of the game.
Leverstock finished the game with a dubious goal when Emma Calvert knocked the ball from Keeper Paula Collis hands and poked it home.
