Newmarket L1 vs Cambridge South L2
Ladies 1s got their season underway with their first game back in division two. It was a fairly even game from the get go, both teams having some good work in the middle and a lot of solid defending. Newmarket had some speedy attacking runs from Charlotte and Emma, both creating chances with Georgia and Beth getting very close to goals. South also tried a few times to get in the D, however the back 4 always came to the rescue, pod boss of the defence Faye showing her experience over their forwards. First half ended 0-0.
Not long into the second half, ladies 1s captain CJ, decided to go alone and show us all why she’s the captain! Running from the half way line, dribbling with ease past their players, got to the top of the D, sweetly passed to Georgia who tapped it in to make it 1-0. Unfortunately, the intense pre season fitness that Newmarket took part in didn’t quite work its magic as South scored in the last minute to make it 1-1.
