Buckingham 3's continued their winning streak with a 3.2 win over Oxford 5's. A goal from Frankie Musson in the first half followed some great play from the back and was just reward for the positive work from the team. Buckingham had most of the play in the first half but another changed team saw chances come and go.
In the second half an individual attack from Nikki Greaves saw her put Buckingham 2 up. Oxford always posed the Buckingham defence a threat but calm play from Karen Wildman and Imogen Thornley kept Oxford from scoring . It was only a break away after a Buckingham attack that saw Oxford pull one goal back.
This did not shake the Buckingham team and the continued positive play saw a penalty corner turned in by Charlotte Robertson. A controversial decision allowed Oxford to score again in the last minutes but the final result of a 3-2 win for Buckingham was just what was deserved.
Another 2 players made their 3rd team debut - Welcome and well played Jess and Lydia.
Man of the match was Karen Wildman who had an excellent game.
Well done to all the team - looking forward to next match against our old friends, Oxford Hawks 5's.
