Last week the girls football team had a friendly match against local school Garden Fields.
The girls played brilliantly in ever worsening light and weather and many girls out of their normal positions as I tried out a new formation. taking a while to gel together the girls went down 1-0, however struck back almost immediately leveling the game at 1-1, Francisca scoring from an assist from Maisy.
The game for the rest of the half was very tense with both teams having good chances, one of which Garden Fields managed to convert moving the score to 2-1. the Girls push on to level again winning a penalty soon after but unfortunately Francisca couldn't add to her tally as the goal keeper made a great save.
In the second half with the rain falling heavier and the light fading both teams struggled to create chances and the game ended 2-1 to Garden Fields. The scorelines are getting closer and closer and I'm sure in the new year the girls will get the result to match their performances.
