England 1 Switzerland 1 (half time 0-0)

Another very competitive game from our Under 17 National Team, the game we deserved to win.

First half both teams were very solid in defence trying to use the counter attack which was most of the time stopped by good defence position moving to triangle until 4th player arrived in defence. In attack the ball possession was about 50% each team which shows how close was the game.

The Ladies team made history by finishing on the podium in 3rd place for the Ladies Under 19 European Championships, which was held in Mealhada, Portugal from 3rd – 5th September.

I am very pleased with the achievement of our team in this competition beating Germany 3-2 for 3rd places, considering we lost 6-3 in the group stages earlier, this result was an excellent reaction from our team.
