Wanderers lose in Wettingen
VWS Dundee Wanderers` aspirations for a medal and promotion took
a dent when they went down 2-0 to French champions Lille in the
opening match of the European Club Champions Challenge in
Switzerland today.
The Taysiders lost a goal in each half to penalty corner drag
flicks which eluded international goalkeeper Carmin
Dow. A club spokesman said: “It was very hot in
Wettingen and that made it difficult for us, we had a few chances
but didn`t take them, but the players never gave up.”
Wanderers already depleted squad of 13 is further curtailed by a
calf muscle injury to Jenny Gerrard, this leaves the Dundonians
with very limited strength in depth.
Tomorrow Wanderers take on Prague (Czech Republic), who lost 5-1
to Italian side Amiscora, and a win here is essent
