KELLER HAS FIRST AND LAST WORD


Germany's Natasha Keller (pictured) scored in the first five minutes of their training match against England at Manchester's Belle Vue this afternoon (Tuesday). England's Lucilla Wright was able to answer seconds later but England went into the break 2-1 down after a goal by Plass. Keller was finally able to wrap the match up with her second goal in the final minutes of play to give the visitors a 3-1 victory.

This afternoon at Nottingham's Highfields Sports Club, England's women's U21 side played the first of three test matches against a German U21 side. England won the match 3-0, with goals from Sutton Coldfield's Katie Long (2) and Poynton's Nicola White. The test matches continue tomorrow and Thursday at Highfields.
