A single goal is enough to sperate Leek & Lichfield

An early goal from Lichfield is enough to the ensure Lichfield leave Leek with the 3 points

Leek went out fighting but within the first 10 minutes Leek were unlucky to concede a goal early on. Having most of the possession allowed Leek to build play and creep up the pitch, putting pressure on the oppositions defence. Holding Leek off, Lichfield overturned the pressure. Leeks defenders Jas Jones, Emily Obhari and Amy Sales were able step up out letting to Maddie Stone and Becky Pratt on the wings and were able to drive up the pitch allowing the forwards Jess Wright, Scarlett Robinson, Honor Beaumont and Holly Sinclair to penetrate the D. Unfortunately, Lichfield's defence held strong and cleared the ball out of the D. This led to a goal from Lichfield. In the second half Kirsty Mudd, Molly Fieldhouse and Shannon Frodsham fought hard in the middle to link play up between the defence and forwards. This encouraged Leek to come out stronger and keep Lichfield from scoring in the 2nd half. Unfortunately, Leek were able to get a goal resulting in a 1 nil defeat against the traveling team.
