Well, this was the game that was going to see how the new look Warriors would perform. Unicorn have always caused us big problems, and this game would hopefully show us how capable the Warriors are going to be this season.
Unicorn came out just as we expected, full on. They caused us some problems in defence, but we managed to hold them off, with some special efforts from Fi. Eventually they did manage to score, but it was a very unlucky deflection from Megan that put them one up. Not letting this spoil things, Warriors really did dig their heels in, and turned up the gas. They started to pass the ball around beautifuly with some great work from Emily, Hannah and Megan Fielding. A fantastic team effort threaded the ball through the Unicorn defence and finished off by Megan. 1-1 and another great goal celebration from Megan. Unicorn didn't see that one coming, and from there on, the game was very even. Some fantastic work from Bronya, who has really strengthened our defence and did a great job in midfield also. Half time and Unicorn a little surprised I think. Second half saw more of the same, some great work from all of the team, really working hard. Unfortunately Unicorn managed to score 2 more goals, but again this didn't seem to effect the moral of the team, who continued to work very hard and made sure that there wasn't any more that Unicorn could do. Final score was Warriors 1 Unicorn 3. This score was a hard fought one, and Paul and myself were very proud of the whole team on Saturday. Some fantastic and encouraging play on display from everyone.
