GOOD FIRST HALF - THEN IT FALLS AWAY

Great White Sharks 1 (Dee)
Under-Estimated 6
Birmingham Women's Futsal League season 7 - Sep 26, 2012

Taking on the team formerly known as Fresh off the Fold, Sharks had a great first half and were 1-0 up at the break.
Dilara (Dee) scored for the Sharks, and defensively the team was very sound, marking efficiently, tackling strongly, and when needed goalkeeper Salma produced some fine saves.
It was all looking good, but then for the second half Under-Estimated's captain came out of goal and played outfield.
This made a huge difference as she began to control the play, scoring four and providing assists as Under-Estimated ran out 6-1 winners.
In the second half the Sharks appeared to run out of steam and did not do their marking jobs as well.
The concentration and organisation was also not as strong as the first half.
Salma said:
"Brilliant effort tonight girls. From a chance to win, we may have achieved a draw if we'd kept our momentum going.
"In the second half we evidently did lack composure and supporting each other, and this is where chances are lost.
"However, it was by far the best first half we have played.
"Let's stay positive. If we can cause trouble for a team as good as this, we are capable of dominating other teams :)
"We lost today, but at least tomorrow we have the winning to look forward to."
