Tamworth Ladies Firsts Vs Notts Uni 2s

What a result!!!

Tamworth went away to notts uni with the attitude of defend, defend, defend and limit the amount of goals we concede.   Notts uni came out and passed the ball round well and Tamworth were constantly defending but the communication and the 100% commitment and team effort we kept the ball out of the goal and at Half time it was still 0-0.  Tamworth remained solid throughout, defending from the front, at times our forwards defending in the defending circle!  We worked the ball out and always had an upfront high player, Gemma Rowe passed the ball to Stevie Williams who worked the ball round the last defender to be 1 on 1 with the goal keeper, wrong footed her and pushed it into the goal from top of the ‘D’.  Notts came out hard and with an unfortunate short corner call Notts uni equalised.  Tamworth remained strong and calm and continued to battle and managed to get into the attacking 25 more regularly and an attacking move down the right from Steph wagstaff produced a short corner.  A short pass to Gemma Rowe fired towards goal got a deflection off a defender and went in.  Four minutes to go and Tamworth remained positive and determined to keep the 3 points that were well earned.
