I don't think I'll be alone in this statement - this is the best the girls have played. An absolutely outstanding performance - every single one of them worked their socks off.
As this was a cup match, we had to field all 8 girls at once. Usually we're allowed at least one sub, but not today!
Our scoring was opened with Elsie, after having one goal disallowed and a near miss from Francesca. First quarter finished at 1-3.
A number of saves on both sides of the field kept the Goalies busy, but shots from both ends found the back, finishing up at 3-6.
A few penalties here and there from both teams, and lots of ground ball competition continued through the 3rd and 4th quarters. Despite managing to reduce the deficit to 2 goals late in the 4th, Mersey were able to finish with fresher legs and score last.
Goal scorers were;
Anna, Minnie - 1
Elsie, Sophie, Francesca - 2
Elsie was selected as Mersey's PotM
Everyone of them should be proud of themselves for the way they played.
