11/9/16 Coles Lane WSL 2

Goals : Villa – Jones (25) Sheffield – Michalska (35) McCue (68)

Villa back at Coles Lane (for last time this season) as our last home game is at Villa Park. Villa took the lead through Jones scoring but 10 minutes later Sheffield equalized through Michalska making it 1-1. It was pretty even game with not many chances at ethier end that stuck in the memory.

Second half was pretty much the same a midfield battle with defenders mopping up anything that came through until McCue scored the winner for the Sheffield. Villa pushed and pushed to make something happen but couldn’t break through Lipman (to me the best CB in WSL 2)

Wasn’t too much to note really Richards was incredible though would easily be our best player on the pitch during this game, always great to see her back such calm and skill on the ball. Shepherd played well too until she was substituted. Moloney was on form pulling off great save from the free kick that led to one of the goals. Smith did well in the pairing with Richards also at the back.

We play Oxford away next on the 25th September, We play for pride now this season and to try finish as high as possible, Millwall away and Watford at Villa Park to end the season.
