Match report Home game against Bristol Central 29 April 2007

This being the final home game of the season for the Fry Club B Girl’s and their penultimate game, obviously grabbing another three points was top of the Fry Teams priority!

The game started poorly for the Fry's Girls as they were 1-0 down in under 3 minutes and Bristol Central looked sharp and very much up for it!

As if someone flicked a switch the Fry Club Girls just got going and started to play some quality football. Alice was then changed for Emma at left back and Steph came on for Chelsie. The Fry Club Girls really turned the pressure on Bristol Central and Amy had several top quality efforts stopped by the Bristol Central Keeper!

Just as looked like Bristol Central were getting back on top of their game Steph broke away down the left and slotted home a wonderful shot from outside the box to put the Fry Girls back on level terms at 1-1.

The game now became a very competitive affair with the Fry Girls slightly on top. With 10 minutes left to play of the first half Amy sprinted off down the right wing to squeeze a beautifully hit shot between the Bristol Central goal keeper and the post. 2-1 to the Fry Club Girls!

Emily Tite was then changed for Sophie and Alice was changed for Danni, in a bid to hope that the fresh legs would gain some further goals before half time and finish Bristol Central off! Bristol Central had other ideas and to their credit rallied and kept the score at 2-1 to the Fry Club Girls as the whistle blew for half time.

After a brave and strong performance from the Fry Club Girls in the first half in that they had come from behind to lead at the break, the same was expected from them in the second half.

The second half started as the first with Bristol Central very much on top! To combat this Sophie was changed for Chelsie. Bristol Central kept up the pressure with long over the top balls and the Fry Girls just seemed unable to get a grasp of the midfield. Emma to her credit did a wonderful job in the Fry Club defence and just challenged for every ball and didn't stop running in order to kept her team in front. Chelsie then took a knock and couldn't continue! So Danni returned to the game as Chelsie replacement.

The second half ground on and though Bristol Central were very much on top The Fry Club Girls just held on as the final whistle blew and the Fry Club B Girls emerged the victors 2 goals to 1, and added another 3 valuable points to the seasons total.

The Player of the Match for this game was Emma due to her being constantly under pressure in the second half and mopping up around her fellow defenders and just never giving in! Well done Emma.
