Lurgan 2 Queens 1

1sts beat QUB 2-1 to go to 40pts & clear at the top of the Premier League securing the title.
It took a while to settle & get going....understandably maybe! There were a few chances at both ends then a PC was awarded to Lurgan...mistrapped then rolled by Emma Lindsay for Charlene to crash home to put Lurgan ahead. The game was a tight game with both sides never allowing the other to settle into a rhythm.
QUB levelled from a well struck PC & had a chance from another to go in front but were just wide. A few minutes later they were made to pay...Zoe beat a few defenders & put the ball into the circle, Emma Lindsay got a deflection in to tangle the GK up & we think Emily touched it over the line to put Lurgan ahead again.
Lurgan were on the front foot but couldn't, get another goal & had to defend as QUB pushed hard for the equaliser. There were a couple of good counters but the last 5 minutes were managed well by the girls!
