 5-2

Chambers tried to dribble across the face of our goal, got muscled off the ball and the loose ball was squeezed into the net.

We could have had two or three in the first ten minutes of the second half.

Musialowski finally gets his goal, right footed from 12 yards out.

Leeds get a pelanty for a trip on their left winger.

Hewitson dives the wrong way.

6-3.

Sub : Musialowski off, Gyimah on.

I think we’re playing three at the back, but the game is too chaotic to be sure.

[alles ist gut]

Clark gets free down the right, and plays in Scanlon for a tap in, 7-3.

Still half an hour left.

[alles ist gut]

Okay, this is silly.

Cannonier turns and fires home from the edge of the box for his hat trick.

8-3, and it’s not even a womens international.

[alles ist gut]

And now it’s nine.

A clearance ricochets off Clark into the net.

9-3 is a fine football score.

[alles ist gut]

It’s ten!

Cannonier gets the ball at the penalty spot, turns and sends the keeper the wrong way.

10-3.

[alles ist gut]

Clark goes off, replaced by Pennington with six minutes to go.

[alles ist gut]

Pennington thwarted by the keeper in the 89th minute.

Full time

Liverpool 10 (ten) Leeds 3.

 

No, I don’t know the last time we scored ten in an age-range game.

 

Meanwhile Middlesbrough held Man City to a 1-1 draw, cutting their lead at the top of the North division to seven points, and we still have a game in hand.

Half time 3-0

We've played as well as the scoreline suggests, although they haven't coped with the wind at all. Their keeper has made a couple of really good stops, while Pitaluga has only had to make one. Rhys Williams has dealt with Jerry Yates in the air, the other defenders have been sound against the high ball, and have got back to cover when it's been played into the corners. They haven't managed to press Clarkson in possession either.

3-1

Cross from their left is bundled in from close range by Yates.

[alles ist gut]

Woltman limps off after taking a kick, replaced by Norris. Still 25 minutes left.

[alles ist gut]

Sub : Corness off, Clayton on. Ten minutes left.

[alles ist gut]

4-1

Clarkson sticks a rebound away after Bearne's shot was saved. Deserved goal for our best player today 

[alles ist gut]

Wilson on for Bradley for the last three minutes. A nice touch to get him on, since he is unlikely to be kept on in the summer.

[alles ist gut]

Full time 4-1

A deserved win in dreadful conditions; we did a better job defending in the second half than Blackpool did in the first, got through a tough patch either side of their goal and then put the game away.

 

Accrington play Burnley tonight in the other semi.
