Dundee Girls go down to Arminen

This was the best game of the tournament so far and both sides put on a good show for the crowd. We typically went a goal down but Julie Bryce took a nice goal to level it soon after. A good 10 minutes followed where it was end to end but the Austrians managed to break the deadlock to take a 2 1 lead into the half.

The second half saw them get that vital first goal and open up a two goal cushion. Not deterred we won a series of corners to get back in the game and a beauty from Vikki sailed into the roof to bring it to a tight 3 2 game with about 4 to go. Try as we did we couldnt get that equalising goal and a last minute corner had promise but sailed just over the bar.

On Friday afternoon, against eventual winners SV Arminen from Austria, goals were exchanged in a tit-for-tat fashion as Rogers twice equalised 60 seconds after Leicester fell 1-0 and 2-1 down. But there was no reply following Arminen captain Kristine Vukovich’s 24th minute penalty corner goal and Leicester went down 3-2.
