The Ladies 4s faced a tough Long Sutton side this weekend in a competitive match, with plenty of good play and teamwork throughout.
There were some fantastic runs and tackles from Nooshi and Fi, who worked hard across the pitch, as well as an absolutely brilliant slap into the D from Becky, creating a great attacking opportunity.
The defence were also stellar with excellent work rate and positivity. 

The highlight of the match was a brilliant team goal. Amy made a great run down the left-hand side of the pitch before passing back to Sophie Kitt in the top D. Sophie then slapped the ball straight towards Naomi, who got a fantastic deflection on it and put it into the back of the net!
Even better, this was Naomi's 50th goal, making it an extra special moment for the team, with everyone celebrating the milestone.

Long Sutton proved to be a very tough and tight opposition, but the Southies continued to work hard and put in a strong effort throughout the game.
Despite the result, some words from the opposition were worth remembering: "You played really well and were a tough opponent. You shouldn't feel disheartened as it was a good game. You moved the ball around better than us at times – we just managed to click on the break!"

POM: Sophie Kitt and Naomi for the brilliant goal and fantastic link-up play.
LOM: Nooshi and Naomi for accidentally running straight into each other – not quite the teamwork we were looking for!

A tough match against a strong opposition, but plenty of positives to take away, including a great team goal and Naomi's 50th!
