The ladies 6’s had about 3 players at one point this week. Huge thanks to Droitwich for agreeing to change the fixture to a home fixture for us so we could get a team out. Give thanks to Alex and Wren for their first call up of the season (which I’m sure won’t be their last either, despite their plans for early retirement).
The team consisted of 6 players who had already played for the 5’s so we were a little tired but euphoric from that win.
We had to start with 10 players due to Clare being caught in traffic and found it a hard first 10 minutes due to this.
We went one ahead with a well worked ball out of defence and up the field. Goal scored by Phil.
At half time, we went in 1-0 up and it was well deserved. After a great team talk and a few sweets for energy we started the second half brightly but couldn’t get that breakthrough.
Droitwich managed to pull the game level from a great break. This meant we were in for a nervous last 15 minutes.
Thankfully we managed to win a short corner and Wren calmly slotted the ball away. Droitwich then ended up with a yellow card due to chatting back to the umpire!
Thanks go to Nathan and Milky for umpiring. ?
