However the Green Army never go down without a fight and, after several attempts on goal, we equalised. The pace was set by our attack and combined with our relentless defence, we took control, securing 2-1 just after half-time.
LSE did not back off easily and Jess Baker proved her skills with some impressive goalkeeping throughout the entire match.However, a scuffle in the area following a well-executed LSE corner resulted in a George's own goal. Equalisation.
15 minutes later and after some excellent football from both teams, the score was 3-3.
5 minutes before full time, George's baffled the LSE defence to push into the lead. LSE then proved why they are in the Premier League by forming a deadly counter attack.
However it was just too little too late and the full time whistle blew to confirm a Green and Gold victory. With a final score of 4-3, we had just beaten the second best team in London, ending the year on a high!
Special mention goes to our goal scorers, Olivia Bennett (2), Danielle Brazier and Sophie Lenihan.
