Match Report October 28th AULFC v Harvester Girls
9 available for both sides; no subs played a part today. We were a bit scrapy to start but we did look more threatening in attack especially with Liv flying down the left wing coming close on more than one occasion in the first few minutes. Priya came out to deny Harvester girls with a clear goal scoring opportunity & after this we got into our flow, Nicole looking to pass out wide when possible & our 3 defensive players distributing the ball well throughout the match allowing Millie to go up to challenge when we won a corner.
Ellie hit the post then shortly after found the back of the net to put us in the lead. If their GK hadn’t have played so well Ellie would have got a 2nd & probably many more; the GK ended up being Ellie’s nemesis for the rest of the match denying her scoring again; saving at least 6 over shots on goal.
Liv got our 2nd goal as she slyly slid the ball past the keeper; Nicole then had a shot saved. Isla & Nicole linked up well but this time the post stopped Nicole from scoring.
Priya was mostly redundant for the 2nd half as we took over; Ellie beat the GK but this time the wood work got in the way. Liv & Ellie were piling on the pressure keeping the GK with lots to do then Harvester cleared it off the line twice. Liv got her 2nd which was a deflected shot off one of the Harvester players; we deserved the 3rd but it was a little harsh on their GK who was their best player.
Millie & Holly shared POTM highlighting the great defensive display today with Mia’s help.
The winning streak continues!
