23rd August, GANT EHC (women) in Mönchengladbach: Ireland– England 1:3 (1:0)
23.08.2011 - The English women had a spectacular win in the first game on Tuesday 3:1 (0:1) against the pluckily competitive Irish. However, the outsiders led 1:0 at halftime. Both teams made the most of their early chances, but it wasn’t until the 33rd minute that Niamh Small won the unexpected early lead for Ireland.
England had dominated until then, but without being really dangerous in front of goal. This changed after the break. England came out of the cabin full of power and turned the game with two quick goals. The first was a successful stroke from Hannah Macleod (41). Shortly afterwards Helen Richardson pushed the ball over the line to put England into the lead for the first time (44).
Anne Panter then brought the score to 3:1 after a penalty corner (54). The game was then decided and England easily held on to their lead until time. Trainer Danny Kerry was nevertheless unsatisfied: “We played badly; the only positive result is that we are now in the semi-finals”.
