Truthfully
speaking the Lido Ladies were not looking forward to this match
too much after the losing to Pontypridd 11-1 last time but under
the wing of a new coach, attitudes were changing.
13
players were available for this match so the squad number problem
seems to be easing.
The
first 15 minutes of the match was completely dominated by the
Lido, with Stephanie Cook and Aimee Bowditch constantly
challenging the Pontypridd keeper. Lido also welcomed the return
of key defender Roisin Sanders who kept the back line in check.
Lido
were unlucky however in the first half to concede a penalty which
resulted in Pontypridd being 1-0 up at half time. Heads were high
though as no matter what the score was; Lido still looked the more
threatening team.
In
the second half Pontypridd managed to score another after a quick
counterattack and were then awarded another penalty to take the
score to 3nil. Those who watched the match could easily see that
Lido could have drawn or won this easily but lady luck was again
not watching this game (she was at Stamford Bridge at the time)…
The
Ladies face Ferndale at home on Sunday but again the squad will be
depleted so they need all the support they can get!
