Rockets reach Final
Posted by Nobody on 16 July 2012
Well done to all the Rockets who played on Sunday (under pouring, pouring rain) and reached the finals in the Kings Langley tournament.
Deja, Mia, Nadine, Nicole, Regan, Shannae and Wiktoria (welcome to the club!!!) were absolutely phenomenal.
We started with a 0-0 with Denham draw in the group stage, a game where the ball just would not want to go in the net
Things were rectified when Nicole scored 2 after brilliant moves from the whole team to leave Watford with no points.
We then dismissed Garston B with a hat trick from Nicole and a midfield lob from Nadine. The defence with Mia Shannae and Regan was amazing while Deja (goalie for the day) was having a great performance.
We then reached the semis against NOOOOO... Enfield Rangers, who kicked us out (painfully) of the league cup last year.
Poetic justice was done when Nadine netted a cross from Regan from short distance and Mia scored a screamer from 15 yards.
A mention must be given to Wiktoria who, in despite of her very young age, was excellent in midfield and played her heart out.
The final proved to be a step too much as our concentration and focus waned letting Garston A bagging a hat trick in the first half.
We came home with a very wet second place and a great time.
Well done all of you girls.
