Here is what Kevin had to say about the match...
"Far from easy but got the job done.
Well I'd rather not go through that every week, that was a bit too close. The heart rate was certainly up!!
We knew before today it was going to be a battle, they were going to fight for every ball and make the game ugly. For large parts of it was scrappy and with their keepers kick down the middle it kept them thinking they had a chance.
Our best footballing moves ended in goals, 3 of them were from through balls which we have been working on. Lovely composed finishes, especially when Bella rounded their GK.
We said at halftime that at 3-1 the next goal was key and that it mustn't go 3-2! 3-3 was even more shocking 😳
At that point it was imperative we trusted in our football and remained calm.
Girls were brilliant, I saw a shift in effort and a desire to not be beaten. This was a different test now for us and one we will be better for having, you see your true character in difficult moments. Huge credit goes to the girls to be up for the fight, and to see that 4th goal go in was a joy.
The fifth from Jasmine just eased everything and was very welcome.
I was dreading pens!!!
Superb performance from POTM Noomi who produced a worldie save onto the post to keep them out. Her kicking was great today as well.
We march onto the next round 💪⚽
Bella can walk into school Monday morning with a big smile now 😁
Thanks for all your support as always and cheers Majid for running the line."
