The jets started the game hoping for that
elusive first win against Pershore Town girls who are new this season
only playing a few games as a team. Before long Pershore went ahead
leaving the Jets a little stunned but before long got back into the game
drawing level. The first half was very evenly matched with the Jets up
hill clawing back a second to go in to half time 1-2 up.
Second half the game remained very even end
to end play with the Jets defence being tested with some pace from Pershores attacking players. Before long the goals started to come for
both sides
Pershore went level, then went ahead, Jets
pulling it back to 3-3. The Jets and Pershore continued the battle
throughout the second half with the Jets desperate to get the goals
needed to secure the victory.
Before long the game was drawing to a close
level at 5-5 with no clear view if the game would draw or a winning goal
would secure a victory for either side. Into the last minutes a
blistering attack from Pershore , leaving the jets defence chasing the
crushing 6th goal for Pershore came in for them leaving the Jets totally
stunned as the final whistle went.
A very well balanced end to end match with
some moments of individual and team play but alas the victory was not to
be for the Jets. Very well played to an improving Pershore Team which
was seen in the girls faces at their first win.
Well done to all the girls for an
entertaining match. |
