After watching the Leicester v Liverpool match, the girls played their first 11-a-side game. Despite being out of their normal formation and comfort zone, the girls started well and were only one goal behind at half-time.

Asfordby then scored a fantastic goal from a free-kick in their own area, with the goalkeeper dropping it over defence and the Asfordby forward turning their defence to lob the keeper for a goal to remember.

The game ended in defeat, but they fought hard in a proud display and now look forward to representing Asfordby in the league.
