U17 League Match v Basingstoke

Lost 0-5

After the exciting 6-6 draw in the cup the previous week this match turned out a disappointment. The game was evenly balanced for the first twenty minutes then Basingstoke scored 2 quick goals. The wind was increasing during the game and to a great extent ruined the game for both teams as it was difficult to control the ball. It particularly affected Newbury's passing game.

In the second half neither team had many scoring chances but Basingstoke took what few opportunities they had to win by 5-0.

Players: Caz, Jo, Emma, Chelsea, Kelly, Lilly
