The U15’s A team beat the CF Benfica Ladies 5-2 on Sunday. Lisbon Casuals were the stronger team in the first half winning 3-0, with two goals score from penalty corners by captain John Harrison and, after a sneaky interception in the oppositions circle, a field goal by Diogo Santos. Solid defending from the Huijsmans sisters kept the CF Benfica Ladies from scoring.

The second half began with an immediate goal from John, again from a penalty corner. The last goal for the Lisbon Casuals was a field goal, once again put away by Jonh. Unfortunately, a couple of defensive mistakes allowed the opposition into our circle, both times resulting in goals for CF Benfica.

Next Sunday the U15 A team face the CFO Belenenses Ladies.
