The game started off strong from Rutherford with a few early chances. Following some great play down the right wing from Rachel the ball is loose from a Durham defender where Caitlin Sales calmly slots the ball past the keeper in the bottom right corner, 1-0 Rutherford.
Durham pile on the pressure by playing long balls over the top which was very well defended by our back 4 Hayley, Ella, Laura and Caitlin C. The defensive 4 held a very strong line catching the Durham players offside on several occasions.
Durham are awarded a corner which is unfortunately turned in for an own goal 1-1 at 36 minutes.
After the half time break the girls continued showing great team work against a strong and physical Durham side. Rutherford came very close on a several occasions however, some great goalkeeping from the Durham keeper holds the scoreline at 1-1.
Also a shout out to our keeper Kerry who is a rock in goal putting in vital stops and sweeping up play.
Well done girls a great point for the table ??❤️?
