After last weeks comfortable victory at Greenleas, it was back to a very tough encounter on the heavy and very muddy pitch at Victoria Park against the the unbeaten and runaway leaders Wirral Hawks.
We welcomed Mackenzie and Meg, AKA Kenzie and Brownie, and they had a very real impact on the game. Meg slipped comfortably into the defence alongside Ellie with Lily moving to centre midfield. Mackenzie started up front and then moved into wide midfield. There were some great individual performances and the girls should not get despondent about the result. Ellie was superb at the back and richly deserved her player of the match award. Lucie was a brave as ever in goal although Lucie being Lucie will be kicking herself about the one which slipped through her feet.
Lily controlled midfield and was here there and everywhere again, whilst Rebecca never stopped running. Annaliese played well but in the second half struggled with the lone role up front and never got the ball enough to take real advantage.
That's it for 2012. Training starts again on Wednesday January 9 but before that there is the Christmas night out, at the Ring of Bells this Wednesday (19 Dec) at 7:30. See you all there apart from Rebecca who will be away on holiday and Caitlin, for whom we are going to arrange something special when she is back up in Chester in January.
