Chloe Logie's sixth hat-trick of the season saw Brentford Women bounce straight back from cup final disappointment with a 4-0 win over Dulwich Hamlet Reserves. 

Logie notched twice in the space of seven minutes in the first half to get the Bees off to a perfect start. 

Just after the hour mark Logie had her third before Eleonora Cottrell came off the bench to add a fourth goal. 

Victory sees Brentford move three points clear at the top of the L&SEWFL Division One North table and extend their unbeaten league run to six matches. 

It took just eleven minutes for the Bees to break the deadlock as Jodie Reid whipped in a delightful cross which Logie judged the flight of to perfection and finished beyond the Dulwich 'keeper. 

Just seven minutes later Logie was at it again as Reid delivered a free kick from the right and it required the deftest of touches from the number nine to guide it into the back of the net. 

The visitors did have their chances to get back into the game as after half an hour a set piece managed to deceive Sophie Boycott and it was only the quick thinking of Chloe Webb to get back and clear the ball off the line. 

The woodwork came to Brentford's rescue early in the second half when another free kick from 25 yards out rattled the crossbar and bounced to safety. 

Mollie Holmes beat several Dulwich players off the dribble to find space to slide Logie through on goal, but the Dulwich goalkeeper spread herself wide and denied the striker. 

But it didn't take long for Logie to get her hat-trick goal as Reid once again supplied her by rolling the ball into her path and Logie stroked it into the back of the net to ease fears of a Dulwich comeback. 

After 69 minutes Sophie Troth whipped in a corner into the middle where Cottrell got the decisive touch to turn the ball home and wrap up the three points.
