Location:        Bootle Stadium, Bootle
Result:  Crosby Stuart Youth (0) Birkdale Diamonds (1)

Today the girls were away to Crosby Stuart who are currently second in the table and with two important team members missing Core and Grocott and Harrison in goal with a bad knee we were hoping we got no more injuries in the game. Birkdale went for it from the start and dominated the first 10 minutes of the game when we got a corner. Crosby couldn’t deal with the perfect ball from Elliott and it ended up with the ball in there goal making it 1-0 to Birkdale.From this Birkdale should have kicked on but the girls failed to put their chances away and Crosby started to grow in confidence.

In the second half again Birkdale had many chances, the best from Smith that just dipped over the bar but Birkdale just couldn’t put the ball  in the goal then Crosby did manage to hit the post. It was a nervous final few minutes but in the end Birkdale got the win
 
Well done girls!
