Man of the Match:

 

First-half

Slough regained their winning streak with a 5-1 defeat of local rivals South Bucks, thanks to a hat trick from Lesley Hobley and a brace from Julia Perry. For the first time in the season, Slough had a full strength team with only Lucy Grainger unavailable.

South Bucks took an early lead, with a goal from a penalty corner in the first minute but Slough were not downhearted and fought back strongly. After a continuous pressure, Slough equalised through Lesley Hobley. Slough went ahead with help of an own goal from a South Bucks defender, who in frustration hammered a Julia Perry cross into the bottom corner, past her own keeper. Slough wasted several penalty corners in the first half.     

 

 

Second-half

Slough’s domination continued into the second half with a superb individual effort from Hobley. Julia Perry got her second to make it 4-1 and Hobley completed her hat trick following a direct hit from a penalty corner.

Slough kept the ball in their attacking half, rarely losing possession. Despite many good moves Slough were unable to add to their tally.
