This was the first meeting against this team, and having looked at their results against the other opposition throughout the season, I thought we stood a good chance of a good result. First half was a well played 30 minutes. And only an unlucky deflection from a free kick put them one up by the end of the first half. There was some very good moving and intelligent passing from our front three, Hannah, Em and Megan. Midfield again well looked after by Bronya and with Beth, Megan, Anna and Fi in goal things were kept tight at the back.
Second half saw Sophie take the place of Bronya, but even this didn't seem to enable us to break near goal and make some chances for ourselves. Some great defending from Beth throughout the whole game, and three fantastic saves from Fi also saved us from a bigger defeat. The final result was 4-0.
I know that some of our girls are feeling frustrated with our run of bad luck at the moment, but I'm sure that must change for us, as I know we have some fantastic players and team spirit. We are playing against some very good teams in this league, and although we might not be winning as many games as we would like to, the experience is good for everyone to be playing at such a high level, compared to some of the other leagues where the competition would be too easy. Please stick at it, Sale United next so get yourselves syked up.
Opposition vote went to Fi, and my vote went to Megan F. But a good performance from everyone. Well done.
