Match Report Womens Rec Team - Murieston United

🗒️ Match report- Edinburgh South 3 – 2 Murieston

What do you say when you beat the league leaders on an unbeaten run? We say: we believed 😜 From the first whistle to the last, this was a performance built on confidence, teamwork, and the feeling that- today- we would crack the code 💪🙌

The message before kick-off was simple: go out, enjoy the game, and play our football. And that’s exactly what we did. After months of growing together as a team, everything clicked. We looked calm, composed, and in control from the start 👌

It didn’t take long to show our intent. The opener came from Ciara, a brilliantly taken goal that rewarded our strong start. We knew Murieston threat on the counterattack, but we dealt with it well- and soon after, Ciara struck again with a composed finish to make it 2–0 🙌

Murieston responded quickly, reminding us why they sit top of the league, and the half ended 2- 1. But there was no panic. We’ve been here before, and we knew the job wasn’t done.

At half-time, the message was clear: keep doing what’s working. A few changes, more energy, and the same belief 🙏

Murieston came out hungry, pushing hard, but we stood firm. Then came the moment- Ciara completing a stunning hat-trick with a beauty to make it 3–1!🥳🥳

With 10 minutes to go, the intensity ramped up. Both sides pushed, and Murieston found another goal to make it 3–2. Game on 😬

But this time, we didn’t let nerves creep in. We stayed focused, communicated, supported each other, and managed the game brilliantly. Five minutes to go🙈 One minute to go 🙈 A late corner, a moment of tension- but we held strong 💪

Then the whistle blew.😅 IT’S A WIN 🥳🥳🥳

A huge, deserved win against a top side. Composed, confident, and full of heart 🫶Hard to believe? Not for us 😜 We are South- and we won🙌🤩🙌

Massive credit to Murieston for a great game, and a huge well done to the team. Three more points on the board and a climb up the table.

On to the next one 💪🙌❤️⚽️🔴⚪️
