Bromley and Beckenham vs St Albans, Saturday 3rd December, league, home
Won: 4-2
Scorers: Lisa Powell x2, Lynsey Askew, Sophie Davies
On Saturday BromBeck took on 3rd placed St Albans in a near top of the table clash. The day was indeed much warmer than the previous week's and the BromBeck team were in high spirits due to the prospect of the fancy dress party the same evening . It was felt that a win would help facilitate the festivities of the night !
The game started off with BromBeck playing the ball nicely around the back using Hannah Westcar as the pivot player- it was almost poetry in motion and St Albans did not really feature in the first 15 minutes of the game. BromBeck were fluent in their passing and it was hardly a surprise when the first goal was converted by Lynsey Askew who used a great bit of individual skill and kept her calm under pressure from the St Albuns goalkeeper to push it easily into the back of the net. A second goal followed shortly after to put BromBeck 2-0 up, scored by Sophie Davis, from a slick short corner routine. St Albans, however, retaliated and scored a goal back from what appeared to be a momentary lapse of concentration from the defenders. A second goal from St Albans was to follow with a well struck short corner to bring the score level at half time.
Despite the level score, BromBeck kept calm and in the second half continued playing their passing game, with Sarah Bentley distributing the ball well in the centre of midfield and Vicky Ives having a solid game as sweeper. About mid way into the second half this style of play was rewarded by a goal, scored by lisa Powell, who struck the ball sweetly from the top of the D for a classic centre forwards goal. St Albans tried to offer a fightback but were unable to score. The icing on the cake came with the last short corner of the game where Lisa Powell deflected a straight strike into the roof of the net to make the score 4-2. BromBeck remain unbeaten and secured a 3 point lead at the top of the table.
Squad: Alison Fox, Chris McNeil, Hannah Westcar, Sarah Phelps, Vicky Ives, Sophie Davies, Lucy Shepherd, Sarah Bentley, Jess Riley, Lynsey Askew, Lisa Powell, Emma Shepherd, Emma Greenway
