Bude seconds 2

Tavistock ladies 3

FROM the first whistle the attacks came thick and fast from Bude putting the Tavistock back line of Colston, Patterson and Evans under pressure.

Visiting keeper Zoe Viggers made one diving save while Hannah Colston prevented a Bude goal by sweeping the ball off the goal line.

Bude opened the scoring with a good cross in across the D that was converted by their winger.

Tavistock came straight back to level from the re-start with Gasper passing to captain Armstrong who laid the ball wide to winger Becky Lamb who then dribbled the ball, dummied the defender and drew the keeper for a superb strike into the corner of the goal.

The visitors started to take control and following another strong attack from the midfield of Bruna, Mills Hicks and Langsford a short corner was awarded that was converted by captain Armstrong. Following more end to end play a penalty flick was awarded to Bude for a Tavistock foot on the line, which was converted.

In the second half a final short corner was awarded to Tavistock; this was stopped and controlled by Armstrong, with a gentle slip to Jo Gasper who struck the ball firmly past the Bude keeper.
