6-3 win in the Lancashire Cup!
On Monday 22nd April, the U12 girls’ football team played against St Bede’s in a qualifying game for the Lancashire Cup Finals. We knew it was going to be a tough match, but the team were keen to keep their unbeaten record going.
The game started fairly evenly, with both teams having possession and creating plenty of chances, but it was Broughton who found the back of the net first with an excellent pass from Megan Pye to Mia McLennan to make it 1-0. Broughton worked hard to move the ball around and produced some brilliant build up play to create several fantastic scoring opportunities. Emily Bretherton and Isla Tuson volunteered to share goalkeeping responsibilities for the game and made several brilliant saves to keep Broughton in the lead. After a superb team performance, the girls’ came out 6-3 winners, with goals from Mia McLennan (x4) and Megan Pye (x2), and have successfully secured themselves a place in the Lancashire Cup Finals!
Well done and congratulations to all the players involved!
