This week’s local derby between Blackheath W1s and Burnt Ash W1s was marred by intense physicality and confrontations on the field, leading to a game filled with argy-bargy that had spectators on the edge of their seats… and Wanni & Laura on the floor.

From the opening whistle, tensions ran high between the rival teams, resulting in a clash of aggressive playing styles that set the tone for the match. Fouls and physical challenges flew back and forth testing the umpires ability to maintain control.

Despite the hostility on the field, Blackheath managed to secure an early lead with a goal from Amelia that ignited the already charged atmosphere.
Burnt Ash, determined not to let their rivals claim victory easily, fought back with vigour but their frustration got the better of them and a push of Wanni after the whistle saw a BA player awarded a yellow card.

As the game progressed, the intensity only grew - BA earned themselves a green card leaving only 9 players on the pitch. Unfortunately Blackheath were unable to capitalise on this & didn’t extend their lead.

With both teams refusing to back down in the face of their opponents' aggression, BA eventually equalised the score having taken a free hit a little too quickly...

The physicality and confrontations continued (with Wanni earning herself a green card) but despite several opportunities for either side to clinch victory, the match ultimately ended in a 1-1 draw.
