Game vs Medfield

Sunday April 7, 2019
Medfield, MA


With a training session squeezed in on Friday, three of our missing starters back for today's match, hopes were running high for better results by the Lady Gunners. 

The pre-game warm up had the right level of intensity, which usually translates into a strong start. Unfortunately, the Lady Gunners started out flat. The deficit was at 2-0 early, before they stepped up to compete. It's tough to figure out why the Lady Gunners don't come out swinging. 

Once this group gathered themselves, the level of play rose; they created a great goal to make the score 3-1 before the half. One of the few times we were able to get the ball wide, Gianna got it behind the defense for a great shot, which Gabby slotted in the rebound beautifully.
 

Medfield being a talented side, with formidable attacking players, stepped up their game early in the second half. Most of their offensive success came from individual players with speed and technical ability. Lots of credit must go to their team, who took a commanding 7-1 win at the end.

Players of the Match
The midfield position was tough to cover, and generate offense from. In the first half, Avery took charge pressuring the ball well. In the second half, Lydia made her presence felt in the center of the park while controlling things well, and successfully playing the ball wide to launch our offense.

Congrats Avery & Lydia for a phenomenal performances, against a tough opponent!!!
