Lockwood Park Dragons 2 v 0 Ben Rhydding
On a pleasant Sunday afternoon, an outstanding performance by LPD lead to them achieving a well fought victory at Ben Rhydding.
From the off Lockwood were under seige with Sally and Emma solid in the heart of defence. Great play up the left by Rachel and Leanne from a counter attack lead to Becca Durrans cleanly slotting the ball to Bex Hargreaves allowing her to calmly reverse stick the ball through the Rhydding keepers legs.
Ben Rhydding picked up the pace after this goal but strong defending from Lockwood saw another break with a long ball up to Stella from Hester. Stella shot on goal and Bex hit the rebound for 6 into the back of the goal!
With coach Kaya calling the shots from the sideline she put the team at ease after the loss of only striker Ellie at half time. Bringing on Sarah saw some more driving attacks. Ben Rhydding finished off the game with an attack, a spectacular diving save (first seen this season!) from keeper Irish allowed Kim to cooly sweep from the line keeping Lockwood their 2-0 lead.
