Ladies' 6s 3 - 0 Maidenhead Ladies 5s
We were a mixed team of 5s, 6s and 7s and took a few minutes to gel. We won a short corner. Tatjana received the rebound. She took her time, composed herself and lifted it into the top corner of the goal. We were 1-0 up.
We continued to fight hard. Linda shot at goal but their keeper cleared it. Linda just managed to catch it and it rolled slowly across the line. We were 2-0 up.
Maidenhead fought back but our defence of Jan, Becky and Deborah was strong and they never scored.
Gail got barged and did not stand for it. Both players got green cards and were sent off for 2 minutes.
At half time, Becky and Jan reminded us to post up and listen and call for the ball. We restarted and were keen for more goals.
The mid-field, Gail, Becky J Emma and Tatjana, worked hard passing to the inners: Jade, Olvia and Georgie. Georgie was tenacious on the ball.
The forward line was slightly older, consisting of Kat, Alessia, Lind and Clare. Alessia had to go off injured with a ball on the foot.
The third goal was during a short corner. Tatjana again lifted the ball into top of the goal. And so we finished with a 3-0 win. Purdy, in goal, never touched the ball.
It was no surprise that Tatjana was voted player of the match.
