Rebekah Rose scored a hat-trick in the second half of the game

Teenager Rebekah Rose hit a second half hat-trick as Plymouth Argyle Ladies cruised to victory at Swindon in the first round of the FA Cup.

The Pilgrims imposed themselves early on and led 2-0 at the break through debutant Natasha Knapman.

Swindon pulled one back soon after the restart, before Rose got in the action to put the result beyond doubt.

Sunday's game against Swindon was scheduled to be a home fixture but was twice postponed due to the heavy rains.

Under competition rules, after the second postponement the game gets switched to the away team's venue in an effort to get it played.

Argyle Ladies next face Havant and Waterlooville on 29 November.
