The second game Mellor had started to get into their stride. Within no time Mellor led 2-0 following fantastic passing play by Olivia H who scored with an assist from Leia Y. Olivia H then returned the favour enabling Leia to score. Eve B was pivotal in the centre, winning the ball for Mellor in the face off and fighting hard (with Olivia D and Milly H) for ground balls. One pass from Eve B to Olivia D was forwarded to Milly H for another Mellor goal. Gracie (borrowed Norbury player) added a little more experience to the team and scored Mellor's fourth goal and assisted Eve to make a fifth. In defence Katie M and Jasmine R took turns in goal supported by some good defending by Alice T and Olivia H who brought the final score to 6-2 with a penalty goal.
It was a great effort by the girls. They really played as a team and demonstrated some really promising passing play, well executed checks and strong runs up the field. The way they played today bodes well for the future!
Mellor vs Norbury Win 6-2
