| Match Report |
Tamworth knew it would be a tough game playing top of the league and unbeaten bloxwich, and within 10 minutes bloxwich had taken the lead with a well worked goal getting in behind Tamworths defence. It was a game that tested Tamworths defence continuously and the back 4 of vikki sandford, Sarah Hutchins, Ellie white and Sarah price worked well together absorbing the non stop pressure. Keeper Nikki Youngman had a great game but was cruelly beaten by a deflection off a defenders stick to make it 2 nil. Just before the break Tamworth broke away with Anne Marshall making a strong run down the right and crossing the ball for Marite leipina leipa to put into the net. 2 1 at half time and tamworth felt they could possibly come away with something from the game. Unfortunately in the second half another deflected own goal and a well struck short corner gave bloxwich a 4 1 win. Player of the match was awarded to Nikki Youngman for her many excellent saves.
