U13 Turquoise 24/25 - Welwyn Pegasus sapphires

today we went to welwyn garden city to play against welwyn Pegasus sapphires. 

We knew from previous games it would be a tough and competitive fixture.  The game started fast and fluent with both teams attacking and making it a very good entertaining game. 15 minutes in and a lack of communication at the back between defender and keeper as we watched a bouncing ball and the striker tapped home 1-0

Later on in the half they broke through lillybelle caught up with great pace but unfortunately her clearance went straight into the bottom corner! 2-0

Second half we were caught napping as they hit the post and we were slow to react to the rebound 3-0. Five mins later we gave away a penalty for handball!  and the penalty taker made no mistake slotting home from the spot 4-0. The one goal I can’t moan about was from some nice play from welwyn and a neat finish into the corner giving the keeper no chance! 5-0 

With 15 minutes to go we woke up and started playing like we did in the first 15 minutes and made a game of it! 

Today was one of those days and we lost to the better team!! Where they 5 goals better? I don’t think so I think we gave them 4 goal through lack of communication and concentration! 

But that’s football! You win some you lose some. 

We will have a debrief on Thursday at training and talk about what happened and where things went wrong today.

These are the results that show the girls team spirit and the most important thing is how we bounce back! 
we go again next week with another tough game! 

Together we are stronger 💪🏻
