Today Redditch were set to play Pershore, who they lost 3-1 to last week. The girls knew they were unfortunate to loose last week with 2 of the goals being down to sloppy play so were out to prove themselves today. For the majority of the first half Redditch played well coming close to scoring on several occasions, but unfortunately it was Pershore who were to take the lead with 2 quick goals just before the half time whistle. While the first goal was a well executed strike, the second was more down to players being un aware of their surroundings, but Redditch were not going to let this get them down.

As soon as the second half got underway Redditch were battling and were determined to get a goal back. Katie attempted to capitalise on a few good balls but was unable to put the finishing touches on the play. Meanwhile in defence both Maisie and Jess made excellent tackles and applied pressure onto the Pershore attack forcing the strikers to make mistakes. These strong styles of play from the back enabled the attackers to again make more chances before the final whistle but were unable to gain a goal back.

Redditch were unlucky today as they played much better than they did last week, unfortunately so did Pershore which resulted in a similar score line. Jess Notley is awarded player of the Match this week for her constant hard work and pressure in defence.
