April 6th, 2010 by NoelWarham| Date:Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â | Sunday 28th February 2010 |
| Location:Â Â Â Â Â Â Â | Bedford Park, Birkdale |
| Result:Â | Birkdale Diamonds (0) Crosby Stuart Ladies (3) |
The second game in two days saw Crosby Stuart Ladies visited Bedford Park. With Grey-Smith injured Birkdale had to change people into new positions. From the kick-off Crosby pushed Birkdale back and after 5 minutes Crosby got their first goal from a shot near the edge of the box that really shouldn’t have made the goal as no Birkdale player challenged them. Birkdale did wake up after that and had a few chances of their own before Crosby got a corner. Birkdale stood watching as the Crosby player slotted the ball home from close range making it 2-0 to Crosby. The last 10 minutes of the half saw both teams sharing the ball well, and the half ended 2-0 to Crosby.
The second half was totally a different game with Birkdale controlled the half dominating Crosby with many shots on goal keeping Crosby in their half. With 10 minutes of the second half gone, Birkdale should have had a penalty when a through ball from Elliott to Edmonson saw her through on goal but she was pushed to the floor. However, no penalty was given. This spurred Birkdale even more and they carried on pushing until Crosby got a break away with two minutes to go and scored to make it 3-0 to Crosby with only there fifth shot on goal. This is a score line that dose not match the game as Birkdale dominated the second half – we just need to do this from the start, but well done girls you were fantastic.
