The team showed great character to come from behind three times to eventually go on and win the game.

It was a highly entertaining game which saw a lot of chances on goal, great goals and a lot of running.

Euxton started the brighter overall and took the lead after 15 mins but the Sharks looked dangerous on the break all game long and after several good saves it was Amelia who got the equaliser finishing high after a late run into the box - her first goal for the team.

Euxton soon took the lead again slotting home straight from a clearance, but Isla broke free on goal from one of many great through balls from Lylia, Sophie, Mia and Lyla to slot home casually.

2-2 at the break.

Euxton took the lead a minute after half time on a quick break, but another good through ball saw Isla stay composed and finish once more. 3-3

Now it was the Sharks turn to finally take the lead! Erin played a firm ball to Isla close to go goal who played a nice chip over the onrushing keeper for her hat trick.

Isla was once again involved as we went 5-3 up, her cross deflecting home of a defender with Tia performing superb on her debut ready to pounce.

Some great individual performances, good passing into space and great defending particularly from India who had a real battle with a quick left winger- India won girl of the game!!

Millie who filled in as keeper today did a really great job with good handling and big kicks! Annie, Aoife, Erin and India showed played really well at the back, with Millie in nets today.

Many thanks to McDonald's Lytham St Annes for our lovely new tangerine away shirts! Never lost wearing them
