The u17 girls travelled to villa today and from the first whistle our girls worked as a team and supported each other from front to back. Emily Blackmore took her first chance from a free kick outside the box which was slotted perfectly into the net.
The girls continued to work hard and won another free this time on the left wing. Sommer Grant was next to have shot and saw her excellent driving free kick hit the back of the net. Our third goal came from some excellent play on the right wing from Emily and Sommer to set up Sarah Walsh who slotted the ball with pin point accuracy into the bottom corner.
In the second half more of the same and Emily scored her second with a long range shot on her left foot. We then failed to press a villa player who scored to bring it back to 4-1.
Our girls reacted to this in the perfect way with a fantastic run down the right wing from Aoibhe Rees who crossed it in to Sommer Grant who slotted home her second of the match. Our final goal came from a half way line break from Aoibhe Rees who fired home for our 6th.
Villa got a second goal in the final moments of the match. Huge effort by all our girls, every single girl was excellent today to earn another 3 points.
