RATTON 2 ETC 2
OLUSANYA 1, OMAR 1.
A rocky start for ETC, it was clear in the first 5 minutes that Ratton relied heavily on one player to create chances for them. Without Hannah Blundell (captain) in central midfield, Jasmin Izzard was called upon to mark the Ratton threat out of the game.
The first half was very end to end, our only threat coming from Lauren Hughes corners, which unfortunately ETC could not get on the end of. Shots coming from Shantelle Omar, Lauren Hughes (captain), Immy Robinson and Jasmin Izzard could still not give ETC the lead. With all the attempts on goal, including a missed penalty; and the possession we had it was very disappointing to go in 0-0 at half time.
The second half saw Ratton come at us, forcing Charleigh Crotty to make 3 or 4 fantastic saves. Finally we got a break through 15 minutes into it, with a ball down the wing to Lola who then ran at Rattons defence, to release an early shot into the bottom right corner. Moments later ETC lost the ball in their own half for Rattons pacey left winger to run the ball all the way to ETCs goal for a tap in.
ETC lost some composure, losing possession again but this time to Rattons most influential player, who then went on to put Ratton 2-1 up.
With moments to go, ETC threw everything they could at them, Robinson coming close to equalise, and Omar hitting the post. A half chance then fell to Shantelle Omar just on the edge of the area, she hit the ball on the half volley that looped over the keeper into the top left corner. A very well taken goal, final score 2 all.
MOM: CHARLEIGH CROTTY “ETC could have lost this game by 3 or 4 goals, if it wasn’t for Charleighs saves”.
