Morecambe under 13 reds played Blackpool Whites on Sunday in the first round of the cup.
Both teams wanted the win and there was end to end action from the start. Our defensive line of Darniah, Millie and Iris didn’t let anything past them and Willow’s run from the half way line and left footed goal meant Morecambe took the lead.
Blackpool continued to play good football though and Keeper Amber was forced to make some great saves.
Just before half time a cross from Willow allowed Elize to score a powerful goal making it 2-0 Morecambe.
In the second half, Morecambe demonstrated great teamwork and Kiera blasted the ball into the roof of the net making it 3-0 Morecambe. This was quickly followed by a well placed goal by Italia thanks to a strong throw from Millie making the final score 4-0 Morecambe.
Manager’s player went to Rosie for battling hard and following instructions and also to Kiera for her long awaited, well deserved goal.
Parents player went to Iris for refusing to let anyone get past her.
Well done girls- a great result.
