THE ROAD TO THE FINAL.

BURY F.C.  V  BURNLEY F.C.  (3-0)

BURY WERE NOW ON FIRE AND WITH BURNLEY SHOWING SIGNS OF FLAGGING,  BURY PROVED JUST WHY THEY WERE THE BETTER TEAM ON THE DAY.  JAY AND AIMEE WERE STRONG IN DEFENCE WITH ELEANOR AND HER GOLDEN GLOVES MAKING SOME TREMENDOUS SAVES.  THE MIDFIELD IN MEGAN, BEATIE, KATIE AND AMBER FOUGHT HARD TO SHOW THAT THEY WERE UNBREAKABLE AND BURNLEY JUST COULDN’T GET THROUGH BALLS PAST THEM.  MAISIE AND BEATIE DONNED THE GOLDEN BOOTS PRODUCING BETWEEN THEM 3 FANTASTIC GOALS.  BURY CRUISED INTO THE FINALS.

THE FINAL

BURY F.C.  V  ACADEMY A.  ( 4-1)

BURY STARTED SLOW WITH ACADEMY SNEAKING A QUICK GOAL BEHIND THE BURY KEEPER.  BURY WERE NOT EXPECTING IT BUT IT SEEMED TO BE THE CATALYST BURY NEEDED.  WITH  BURY ONCE AGAIN AWAKE ON THE BALL THEY PROVED JUST WHY THEY HAD EARNT A PLACE IN THE FINAL.  WITH SOME EXCELLENT CROSSES FROM MEGAN, BEATIE SOON PUT THE BALL IN THE BACK OF THE NET.  THERE WAS NO STOPPING BURY NOW.  ONCE AGAIN THE DEFENSIVE TRIO IN JAY, AMBER AND THE BURY KEEPER ELEANOR  WERE TOO STRONG A FORCE TO BREAK DOWN AND ALTHOUGH ACADEMY FOUGHT HARD THEY JUST COULDN’T GET ANOTHER GOAL BACK.  A FURTHER 3 MORE GOALS WERE SKILLFULLY PLACED AT THE BACK OF THE NET BY MAISIE.  THE FINAL WHISTLE WENT AND BURY WERE THE CHAMPIONS OF THE TOURNAMENT.

WELL DONE BURY!!!  WERE ALL SO PROUD OF YOU!!!
