Over the last three seasons the Warriors have had some real battles against Unicorn Emeralds but this was one of the best. Unicorn unbeaten in the last three seasons and title winners for the last two were made to look pretty normal.
The match started with some superb tackling and defending from Anna, Megan W and Bronya. Some excellent play by Megan F and Hannah resulted in a shot just saved by the goalie. The ball went loose and Emily executed a superb sideways overhead shot into the bottom corner. One nil to the Warriors! Unicorn were stunned.
A free kick to Unicorn and their Milly scored a stunner. Two minutes later and she scored another long range stunner. Two one to Unicorn at half time.
The second half saw lots of pressure from the Warriors. Bronya fought for every ball and is improving with every match. Megan F played outstanding football with weaving runs and intelligent passing. Emily captained her team and led by example. Megan W and Anna rose to the challenge tackling and closing down every Unicorn player.
Another long distance strike from Milly (she was becoming a real pain in the neck by now – she’s very good really!) and an unlucky last minute goal made it 4 – 1 to Unicorn.
The score didn’t reflect what was the Warriors best team performance of the season.
An outstanding performance by Emily was rewarded with the opposition player of the match. Bronya got my player of the match. Well done girls. Another performance like this will no doubt give us a victory against the likes of Unicorn in future.
