Tamworth Ladies Thirds Vs WATS

Tamworth took a much changed side to Wolverhampton on Saturday and came away with a well-deserved win.  The town side started brightly with their midfield controlling the play, they forced a number of short corners with both Di Milner and Claire Miles going close to opening the scoring.  Tamworth continued to create opportunities but it wasn't until late in the half that they were able to convert their pressure into goals when Claire Miles scored from a penalty corner.  A defensive lapse five minutes later gifted WATS an equaliser to go in all square at half time.

The second half was more evenly contested although the town edged possession WATS were dangerous on the break and stand in keeper Lisa Morris-Wood made a couple of important saves before Tamworth scored their second, a strong run from Di Milner found Kate Caddick in the D her shot was blocked but fell to Sue Hogben who squared the ball to Fiona Whittaker for an easy tap in.  Tamworth had to withstand some pressure from WATS late on but their defence held firm for a well-deserved win.
