Today was an end of season cup match and another windy day with gales blowing down the length of the pitch.
Laurel Park came out strong and the game started evenly, but Maidenhead had the wind behind them and the slope in our favour. After ten mins a shot from Lizzie was blocked, but she followed up brilliantly to score. Soon after Sophie intercepted a goal kick and scored with a strong shot.
Second half Laurel Park were in charge with the wind and slope behind them. The Maidenhead girls put up a great defence though and our goalie was brilliant, so Laurel Park struggled to finish off. Some great runs from Sophie, Charlotte, Lucy and others gave a chance of a third, but the game ended 2-0 to Maidenhead.
Thanks to Laurel Park for such a good game in very difficult conditions and Vinny for the great coaching and encouragement.
