Hide AdComing in 1-0 down at the break, the Boro girls went out for the second period with real purpose, and shortly after going 2-0 down they produced the moment of the match with Olive Atthews scoring an absolute worldy from just inside the halfway line.
The relentless work-rate the girls had put in led to some tired legs and they conceded two late goals to finish 4-1 down.
Coaches from both teams commented how enjoyable and competitive the game was, a real testament to the work Scarborough are putting in at training and during matches.
