Game week 14 saw a clash of 8th and 9th in the league and it promised to be a closely fought match and that’s exactly how it turned out to be.
Our pre match talk, unveiled some new tactics fresh from the brain of Coach Stubbs and we set off implementing them straight away, with Kirsten releasing Kaitlyn into space who crossed to the back of the D for Cesca to pop up and bury the ball in the net. Our lead didn’t last long in a yo-yo first half with oaks equalised a few minutes later despite the best efforts of Julie and Julliette.
Blackheath went straight down the other end with Heather winning a short corner and then Rachel flicking it past the keeper from the top of the D, again our lead didn’t last long with Oaks unleashing a tomahawk from nowhere and then thankfully it was half time.
Julie lead our talk suggesting we alter our tactics at the back with Rachel helpfully piping up and repeating the exact same message seconds later to win wally of the week.
The second half turned into a battle of the midfields with Rachel and Heidi spoiling a lot of Sevenoaks ball and them doing the same to us. When they did break Juliette was preforming heroics in goal to keep the score level. Blackheath decided to have one last go at winning the game with the ball played beautifully into the D but Heather couldn’t quite sneak it in at the back post.
MoM – Juliette for some great saves
Wow – Rachel for not listening at half time
