Not overly impressed. Thought City team 2nd best, although they huffed and puffed. Looked unfit compared with other team, and dare I say it 1or2 looked overweight.
There was a big difference in both fitness and class so they did well to keep the score down to 2 nil.
Don't follow women's football that much but the opposition looked like they had played together and been pros for a while.
Bit unfair, Gintra are a full time professional outfit.Quote:

Gintra is over halfway through their season, they're second in the league 3 points off the top with 3 games in hand. Their team includes Americans, a Canadian and three players from Nigeria, which includes the woman who scored both goals.
Cardiff City play Shelbourne on the weekend and earlier this year the Irish team signed a player from Gintra.
I think it proves that Cardiff women have a long way to go before they cant seriously compete at that level.
I didnt know that Gintra were fully pro, but there was a very obvious difference in fitness and conditioning. Even to an untrained eye.
The women's team final lost today and ended their record run. Hadn't lost in the league for 23 months before today.
Shame it was to Swansea.
Still 5 points clear at the top of the Adnan Premier table.

I wanted to watch the game. S4C said they were showing it on their Sgorio FB page, youtube etc, but there was nothing.Quote:
