Under 13’s vs Letham Tangies

Our under 13’s played brilliantly today despite going down to an early goal scored by Letham’s speedy winger. The game was played in warm sunshine and our girls put in a tremendous shift for the entire match, slowly finding their rhythm and putting together some great passing moves.  Two goals just before half time saw the Strollers finish the first half 2-1 ahead.

Into the second half the team showed powerful and dominating play through the midfield and managed to add a further three goals to wrap up a well deserved 5-1 win. Shannon Reekie, Kerys Blythe, Brodie Clark, Denver Hopkins  and Rachel Lee all linked up well and gave each other great support with good movement off the ball. Courtney Porter and Emma Swanson both held strong positions defensively and limited a pacey Letham attack to few chances.

We had both our regular goalkeepers out today, but Daniela Florez has been showing an interest in the position and is currently doing a great job as our back up.  She made some great saves today and is getting better with every game.

Well done to all the girls today for what was a tremendous performance.  The hard work is definitely paying off.
