Championship: Western Springs 20th july











It was nice to play of artificial surface,  with recent heavy rain the other pitches are not in great condition.

Tail end of school holidays also meant we were without Ellie,  Sophie & Clara. No subs... which did provide me the opportunity to referee.. which was a good run around. ..

Western springs,  based on results so far did appear to be a weaker side and I was quietly confident of another good win. 

The start of the game did suggest the same. We spent the first 20min in their half with most of the possessions. But as has been a problem in other games.. just could not score a goal.

Finally lucy did sneak one past their goalie.. however shortly after they had a break away run.. one-on-one with molly in goals for the first time.. and they scored.

Molly did make a few good saves in the first half, but we were unable to regain the lead, despite many chances.

Lucy returned to goalkeeper for 2nd half and molly to the mid field.

The flow of the game remained the same in the 2nd half, we dominated possession with lots of changes, but did not convert. Aanchal managed a goal to once again take the lead, but they once again responded with a goal of their own. 

With only seconds of the game remaining, they had another break away run, and just pushed the ball past the post... 2-2 final result.. 

Tara was awarded player of the day for good distribution of the ball from defence.
