Today we played a team in the League Cup Final who finished just below us in the league. We had played them obviously twice before and drawn both times so today was going to be a tough match.

We started off quite slowly, the ball wasnt on the ground much and it was definately a game for the defense of both teams. The first half ended goalless but we should have gone into the break at least two up.

Second half was a better performance all round, we defended really well and held them to one shot on target, and that was a pass-back to the keeper. We scored a lovely goal with about 20 minutes left on the clock and battled to secure the win.

In the changing rooms after, I went to take a mouthful of what I thought was Champagne and it was Remy Martin cognac! Someone read that it said Champagne on the side and brought it in! I was half drunk after a beer in the bar!

Here is a pic of the team lineup:
