This was always going to be a game of great importance to Lichfield as they are currently aiming for promotion. Tamworth knew they were going to put under pressure so their defence had to work hard to keep then out which they did until the 28th minute when Lichfield passed the ball between themselves to create a very soft goal. Tamworth continued to defend well with some great tackles by Sheri Alsop to keep them out. The second half once again saw Lichfield attack hard with some good saves by Vicky Butler keeping the score at 0-1. However with 5 minutes to go Lichfield had a short corner which they scored from not using a stick! Tamworth battled hard to achieve their lowest defeat by Lichfield and they can hold their heads up for the all-round team performance they gave against such a strong side.
