Newall Green Girls Football League

Last night saw the 3rd leg of the Newall Green girls football league take place.  So far the girls have been at the top of the table unbeaten, so a lot of the other teams were out try and knock our girls off the top spot.
Their first game was against Newall Green. The girls got off to a great start, applying pressure to Newall Green straight away.  It wasn't long before they caved in to the pressure from Ladybarn's attack. Showing some great attacking football the girls finished the game with a 3-0 victory. 
In the second game the girls faced Northenden. Again Ladybarn started with a full on attack, but Northenden showed their toughness with great defending.  Then in the later stages of the game Northenden conceded a free kick 25 yards out from their goal.  This was the key moment when Ladybarn's Captain stepped up to take the free kick and struck an unstoppable missile into the top right corner of the goa, giving Ladybarn the 1-0 victory.
In the final game of the day the girls played Benchill.  This was a very tight fought game with end to end action.  It was the first that Ladybarn really had to do any real defending.  Nonetheless the girls did not allow this to change their attacking game plan and in the late stages of the game the girls broke the deadlock to win the game 1 - 0. 
The day was a great success with outstanding performances all round by Ladybarn girls.  Ladybarn remain unbeaten all season in this league and top of the league table!!
