Squad: Millie, Norah, Emma, Ellie, Sophie, Gracie, Olivia, Ellen, Poppy, Bella
Kick off was delayed slightly due to an unscheduled pitch change. When play began the visitors started brightly and Norah had to be alert in goal. Poppy was also being challenged well by their forwards power and pace. As the game progressed Ellie, Mille and Olivia begna to link up well leading to good chances for the home side.
Gracie and Bella were working hard in midfield to tackle and close down space for the opposition. Both sides made regular changes. Emma came on upfront and used her pace well and struck some powerful shots. Sophie worked hard in defensive midfield to continue to deny the opposition too much time and space. Ellen moved in to defence to support Poppy as rugby continued to battle hard.
In the 2nd half Olivia moved in to goal and showed good reflexes and utilised her long clearances. Ellie and Millie started to find pockets of space to allow them to dribble the ball forward. Rugby continued to make substitutions due to a few injuries and to combat tiredness.
Rugby continued to battle hard all the way to the final whistle. The girls can now enjoy some well deserved rest and recovery time.
