Maidenhead U13 Girls vs Caversham Swans (away)

The first half was a close physical contest with great football and attacks from both teams. Maidenhead had a few chances with some great crosses from Sophia, but Caversham kept breaking with one excellent shot off the cross bar and one goal.

Maidenhead started the second half with much more control and had lots of chances with Emily forcing the goal keeper to make a few saves. Eventually this paid off with Emily levelling the game.

The defence still had to cope with some brilliant breaks from Caversham. Laila, Dani and Emily played really well in defence, but the Maidenhead goalie was still kept busy with two brilliant saves – one out of the bottom corner and one hard shot tipped over the crossbar.

Caversham have beaten us the last few times we have played and a few of the girls had knocks during the game, so really well done for to Maidenhead for keeping their heads up and coming away with a draw. And thanks to Caversham for a great contest at a really nice venue!
