Report: Magpies lost out in a high scoring game to Drayton this week. Torrential rain throughout made this a very difficult game for defenders and goalkeepers but both teams played some good football in the terrible conditions. Drayton took the lead before Evie equalised with a well taken goal. Bali added the second with a good run and finish and Cleo made it 3-1 with a long range effort. Evie scored her second with a strong shot with the girls going in 4-3 up at half time. It looked like Magpies would go on to win when Kirsty made it 5-3 with a thumping shot early in the second half. Drayton however had other ideas and fought really hard to get the game back to 5-5 with a few minutes left. A draw probably would have been a fair result but Drayton grabbed the winner at the death to take the three points.
