Game 2 Sarnia 1 - 1 North London
Sarnia Spirit turned up in confident mood hoping to take something from the game against North London. For most of the half London pressed and Sarnia were on the back foot. Morgan Wagg's again was having a solid game in net with some fine saves. Sarnia's defence of Alexa Eldridge, Madisyn Mika, Abby Zalewski, Steph Maitland and Daphine Hibma were kept busy and London found it hard to penatrate. London did open the scoring just before half with a hard strike out side the box. Sarnia managed to tie it up right on half when Ashley Edgar was brough down on the edge of the box after a fine run. Mickayla Moses made no mistake ahit a hard free kick high into the net. 1 - 1 half.

2nd half, saw a battle in the midfield. Madisyn Mika and Mickayla Moses and Sydney Caron did a great job man marking and didn't let London settle. Alexa Eldridge, Sarnia's sweeper, also did a great job clearing any danger through the middle. Sarnia's best chance came when Skylr Melton and Chloe Kennedy once again combined well with Skylr slipping the ball to Chloe and the 50 -50 ball was challenged well by the goalie. The last play of the game saw Mickayla Moses split the London defence to put Chloe Kennedy one on one with the London defender. A great effort with the shot but again the London goalie denied Sarnia with a finger tip save. Final 1 - 1 tie.
