Final match of group: WYW 5, Cardiff Met 1, with four goals for Carol Breen. Very good effort from WYW to win two matches on first UEFA outing. As expected, Medyk Konin walked away with the group.

That's a pity. They done really well to get two good wins on the board. Pity they couldn't have sneaked a draw in against Medyk.
