Leeds Ladies vs Republica Internationale.

Me and my friend Adam decided to embark on our first away game for Leeds Ladies although it was a cup game. The weather looked murky and miserable but that was NOT going to put us off. We got to the place where the game would be held and as it was a cricket ground club, the actual match would be taking place over the road on a field. We sat inside the cricket clubhouse and we chatted to a man who was working there. We then decided to take ourselves off over to the field where we stood at the pitch side with Gary and his little crew. We then got ourselves comfortable and the game kicked off and right from the off, Leeds Ladies controlled proceedings. I was encouraging them to keep up the pace and we started scoring for fun! The goal-scorers were Rachael Ackroyd, Rachel Landricombe x2, Emma Bentley, Zoe Doherty, Shelbey Morris and Nicolle Jepson. It was an entertaining game and me and Adam felt the girls could have had more goals. The star players for me were Rachel L and Emma who bossed the game and kept the girls ticking. Bridie Hannon was also on top form encouraging the girls to keep up the tempo. Me and Adam went home very happy and it's only whetted my appetite for more games. My next away game will be Chorley and I cannot wait for it!
