Our ladies welcomed Skegness Town to Abbey Lane, both teams started at a fast pace looking to get an early goal! It was Skegness who took the lead, a shot from the right creeping in at the near post catching the keeper cold, who thought it was going wide! A response wasn’t to take long, a through ball from Jaz Jeffery set Amelia away to score her first of the afternoon! The game opened up and with a few shots at goal for both teams didn’t trouble either keeper. Around the 30min mark Spa grabbed their second, a mix up and the back saw the ball break for Amelia, her shot was parried into the path for Maisy to tap into an empty net. Just before half time, Skegness equalised although Spa feel it should have been a free kick for a push in the defenders back. Skeg then upped the tempo and began pushing Spa back, with the last action of the half, they took the lead. A throw into the box wasn’t dealt with and the striker was left free to head home!
The 2nd half began slow, with little chances for both sides. Skeg then grabbed a 4th after capitalising on a poor goal kick. Spa got a goal back from a free kick 25yards from goal scored by Claire Green. Skeg then grabbed their 5th after a long shot went through the keepers hands! Before the final whistle blew, Spa grabbed another goal after a fast break!
