Three of AFC Reading Miami’s side celebrated success in the Berks & Bucks County Cup finals to mark a triumphant season for the club.
AFC Reading Miami Belles U15’s
Up against Childrey FC, AFC Reading Miami Belles U15’s dominated first half hitting both the upright and the crossbar before captain Lucy Giles collected the ball on the edge of the box and fired in a low shot into the bottom left corner.
The second half started with both teams playing attacking football with chances created at both ends. Huge credit goes to the defensive effort of the team to keep out Childrey as they stuck together to claim the cup.
AFC Reading Liberty Belles U14’s
AFC Reading Liberty Belles were the first of the club’s three teams in the final against Milton Keynes City FC
The first half was fairly even with Liberty Belles creating the greater amount of chances but their usual clinical finishing deserted them.
However the half time team talk and reset did it’s job and the second half saw them come out and take control of the match and three goals saw them to a comfortable victory.
AFC Reading Dakota Belles U12’s
Dakota Belles were AFC Reading’s youngest team into a county cup final and it couldn’t have got off to a better start as they took the lead five minutes in.
Shorty after, they added a second to make it 2-0 and started to look very much in control.
Some dogged defending by Shinfield kept the score at 2-0 until a few mins before half-time Shinfield managed to sneak a goal and it was non stop attacking from Shinfield for the remaining six minutes but Dakota managed to withstand the onslaught.
The second half was end to end and the next goal proved to be crucial as the score went to 3-1 and then 4-1 in quick succession. Dakota saw out the remainder of the game to secure the win.
