Cheadle Heath Nomads 2-4 South Durham & Cestria
Today saw the girls travel to Manchester to play Cheadle Heath who, it's fair to say, have had a 'mixed bag' of results so far this season whilst we (SDC) have won every game, only conceding one goal along the way.
Cheadle started the game very well taking the game to SDC and were generally on top for the majority of the first half while we laboured. Cheadle sounded a warning when they hit the bar with a miss hit shot and duly went ahead on the stroke of half time after SDC gave away a silly freekick. The Cheadle number six hit it right inside the post to deservedly go 1-0 up.

After the smashing of tea cups and the blasting of hair dryers the girls came out intent on getting back to parity. However Cheadle had other ideas and a defensive mix up resulted in an own goal putting our hosts 2-0 up and leaving an uphill task for us considering the way we were playing.
After a stoppage due to an injury to one of our players, SDC suddenly clicked into action scoring two quick fire goals through Hanratty. Another one soon followed after a Swales freekick rattled the crossbar and Jordinson headed the rebound in.
After a lull in proceedings, where Cheadle came back into it, SDC finished strongly with Ness rounding the keeper only to hit the upright. However she soon made amends,firing home after a melee in the Cheadle box.

Good result for SDC and a very spirited performance from Cheadle who will shoot up the league if they continue to play like that.
