Urmston Meadowside 2 Denton Town 5 (u13's)

Well another season been and gone - how time flys. Last night it was a sod getting to Urmston with the M60 snarled up, resulting in 3 players (Sally, Chloe W and Kay), arriving 20mins late. The ref was really pushing for kick off, but they arrived with seconds to spare. Nobody's fault, but because of this the match was shortened to 30mins each way.

Fantastic sportsmanship from Dave and the Urmstom girls, shouting hip hip horay before the game, in tribute to us winning the title. Never seen that before, and I thought it was pretty special - so thanks Urmston.

Great start with Nat scoring after about 30 secs, but after that we seemed to stall a bit, until Sam bagged another after 14 mins. Felt we needed the two goals early in the 2nd half, as we were starting to give Chloe (Urmston) too much space, allowing her to run at you, which is what she does best, and eventually it paid off for them, with her scoring two fine goals. However, the game was lost for them by this time. Considering she was not well, she play some terrific football, and is a class player, who I believe is going to Man. United next season.

Sam's brace moved her into 3rd on the goalscorers charts, and Georgia could perhaps have caught late on if she'd been greedy, but give her credit, she did the right thing, and played the ball to Sam, putting team before herself. Nat finished 2nd, one short of Yoyo (who was missing for the 2nd game running due to illness). Lauren also bagged her 5th of the season. But as Nat keeps saying, its not about who scores the most, as everyone contributes - there is no I in TEAM. Well done, Nat, that is a great attitude to have.

Our player of the match was Nat, and for them, despite Chloe's performance, went to Darcie, who also got it off us when we played at ours. Ref didn't have a great game, missed a few offsides, couple of clear back passes, so gave him 7/10.
