Report: 25-03-2012 – Ladies 1sts (0) vs. (2) Kingston Upon Hull 1st’s

March 30, 2012 by Slazenger HC

After the drama of the Dragon’s game the day before it was natural that Slaz felt a little jaded for their trip to Hull. Glorious weather at the KC stadiumm they were greeted by a man in thick black jumper and woolly gloves who very rude to the Captain. He started to arise suspicion of the Slaz Goalie when seen arguing with a Tony Tiger mascot and loitering near the changing rooms, so she had him escorted from the premises! After all this excitement Slaz arrived at the pitch late, only to get completely soaked by the water jets and began the match on a very bouncy Hull pitch. The Hull players were clearly used to their pitch and it was evident that the Slaz players were not.
 
Nevertheless the team started well with the defence doing a sterling job of keeping the ball out of the net despite several threatening Hull attacks. Nez, Sue and Millie from the seconds stepped up admirably to assist keeping the half time score level at 0-0 with some intelligent play.  The team were grateful for all the support – as well as people travelling from Horbury, Kelly had also enlisted another local wierdo who cheered her on from behind the fence, drinking a can of lager.
 
To the suprise of the Slaz team, the pitch was again watered after half time, allegedly to stop the ball bouncing as much but this did not really seem to work. The Hull defence were solid and thwarted any attacking play leaving Slaz frustrated. Despite battling hard to maintain the 0-0 scoreline, in the last 15 minutes Hull piled the pressure on and were rewarded with their first goal which bobbled over the line, shortly followed by their second goal which sealed the game for them and a chance of moving closer towards Slaz in the table.
 
Only one match to go now which is on Wednesday night against local rivals Chapeltown. 8.15 pushback so if anyone fancies giving us support it would be gratefully appreciated.
