Defeat for Town Ladies 2nd XI Loughborough Town 4th XI extend winning run

LRHA LADIES - PREMIER DIVISION LOUGHBOROUGH TOWN LADIES 2ND XI 0 LEICESTER CITY LADIES 3RD XI 3 AFTER an impressive start to the season, the Ladies 2nd XI hoped to continue their winning streak when taking on the Leicester City 3rd XI.

Leicester came out with a strong attack making Town have to respond quickly and play a more defensive game.

The game was a constant back and forth as both teams had chances of their own to score. Town continually battled to get the first goal of the game, but that fell to Leicester giving them the initial one up on Town.

In the second half the Town continued to go for goal to get the equaliser but were still unable to overcome Leicester’s defence.

With some impressive skills displayed by both teams, Leicester were able to come away with another goal making the final score of 2-0.

Town will hope to come away with a win in next week’s game against the Roundhill 1st XI. MRHA T3 - SOUTH EAST 1 LOUGHBOROUGH TOWN MEN’S 4TH XI 4 LEICESTER MEN’S 3RD XI 0 TOWN 4th XI stretched their winning start to the season to four games with a hard fought 1-0 win over an experienced visiting Leicester side.

Much of the game was played out between the 23’s and on the occasions when they were called into action both keepers made excellent stops to keep the scoreline at 0-0.

It was James Gregory scoring his first goal for the club part way through the second half that eventually gave the win to Town.

Town were made to work hard for their threee points with much of the credit for the win going to defender and man of the match Alfie Doel, whose skill and composure under pressure was excellent. Next up is a trip to Khalsa Leamington 5th XI.
