In contrast to last week, the 2s took to the pitch just as monsoon season hit Manchester.
With a new formation, we started strongly but faced an equally strong Heaton side. Some lovely triangles created some good chances for the 2s, but we went into half time 0-0.
The second half was more of the same, with both teams equally matched, however, Heaton managed to capitalise on the counter to take a 1-0 lead. Despite some lovely attacking play, the 2s were unable to find an equaliser. Nevertheless, there were many positives to take from the match, suggesting there is a promising season to come!
Helen managed to scoop both player and donkey of the match! With some great passing and and defending...finishing the game however with a ball to the face! Luckily only an icepack was needed!
