A break in Gowerton’s back line allowed Bridgend to tackle through into the D and score an equalising goal, putting Gowerton under pressure. However, after a productive half time talk, Gowerton came back stronger, gaining a lot of possession in their attacking half.
Although a few breaks were made by Bridgend, Gowerton continued to press and attack, resulting in a second goal from Nicola Tucker. From here on, Gowerton were able to hold onto the lead; clearing the ball wide up the pitch, showing great execution midfield through to the forwards.
The game ended with a final score of 2-1 to Gowerton and man of the match was awarded to Jessica Williams.
