Under 12 B Team Match Reports Coventry City Ladies 2 - 1 Dudley United Coventry got their league campaign off to a winning start when they just managed to edge a hard fought game with Dudley. City fell behind to a well - taken goal by Dudley’s Georgia Thacker after 20 minutes. Prior to this the Sky Blues looked to be capable of absorbing pressure, their 4-5-1 formation giving them a secure start to the game. Last season’s hot –shot striker Whitley Baker – Richardson levelled the scores on 24 minutes with a well - crafted goal. The second half saw both sides battling for supremacy but neither gaining the upper hand. This stalemate lasted until the 56 th minute when City striker Whitley Baker – Richardson made a thirty five yard solo run through a surprised Dudley defence and managed to coolly slot the ball past the keeper. The Sky Blues managed to keep Dudley at bay for the final minutes of the game to record their first win of the season. |
