On a brighter than expected early Saturday morning, the team were in good spirits going into the game. First half was a cagey affair, both sides not quite firing on all cylinders, tight midfield with not many chances. Witham looked a bit stronger towards the end in their ability to protect the ball in attack and win the 50/50 ball.
Second half both sides started to create more chances and then with a quick pouncing finish Aileen Smith broke the deadlock with a decisive strike. This calmed the nerves a little and further chances to finish the game off came and unfortunately went.
Witham scored with a well taken short corner and then again repeated the same from a similar move by their number 71. Whilst S&B had their chances the team were just unable to bring it back. A draw would have been well deserved but it was not to be. This disappointed team will bounce back that is for sure – keep creating those chances!
