Ladies 2's Match Report – 13 April 2013

Tornados Ladies 2's v's NYP, 0-1 against.
 
This was the 2nd game of the season for the ladies 2's who are a mix of new and seasoned players. The game didn't disappoint, where all 20 ladies played enthusiastically despite Singapore's all year round Summer. Every member of the team deserves to be congratulated for having worked tirelessly until the final whistle. The match saw more short passing, taking tha ball around the back, and communication as the Coaches - Joran and Kris reinforced in the pre-game team chat.
 
The centre of the pitch saw excellent performances from the seemingly inexhaustable midfield players including Debbie, Jacqui and Lizzie, but many good plans were thwarted by the relentless tackles of the skilled and speedy NYP players. Tornados strong defence kept fierce attacks at bay with memorable shots from Abi and Jennie returning the ball in play.
Tornados forwards attacked with determination and gusto, especially in the 2nd half when shots from Sam and Raechelle went just wide accompanied by Awws fron the Super Saturday Crowd. NYP's only goal in the 2nd half shows they will be a major force in the league with the Tornados ladies 2's close on their heels!
 
Jennie was voted 'Player of the Match'.
