Blindsided by The Flashy Socks

Hertford Ladies 2's started this match in impressive style taking an early lead and putting the opposition on the back foot.
An eventful first half consisted of 5 goals, 3-2 to Hertford (so we won half of the match), one of the opposition green carded for an intentional trip on Olive who fell to the ground as one would expect from such an intentional foul!
We started the second half raring to go and dominated the first fifteen to twenty minutes of play and made sure to stop the oppositions long balls getting past our midfield. Excellent assessment by Mary at half time and great communication by all behind the forwards and mids to make sure we were positioned well to make the interceptions from their hit outs.
Their card happy umpire decided another green card needed to be awarded to yours truly after my stick flew out of my hand into the path of one of the oppositions player as she was making a break with the ball. Totally unintentional!
Having spent my two minutes in the naughty corner We continued fighting to retain our lead but two good breaks from the opposition with two goals saw it slip away.
A truly excellent performance by all the team, great saves from Olivia resulting in another man of the match badge being awarded to her to add to her collection.
