U14 JPL 24/25 - Harpenden Colts
Harpenden Colts 2 Goffs Oak U13T 4
Today we had an early start travelling away to Harpenden. On the back of 2 wins out of 2 we were hoping to get another good result and we didn't disappoint.
However for the first 15minutes the girls struggled slightly with the pitch and unfortunately we went a goal down.
The girls were resilient and fought back with a fantastic through ball from Scarlett to Ayse who scored fab goal. 1-1.
We went in at half time with a better mindset. The amazing thing with the girls, despite going a goal down, they still knew they could turn it around and in the 2nd half that's exactly what they did.
An absolutely peach of a cross volley from Scarlett landed right to the path of Isla who with her left blasted into the back of the net.
1-2
From here we went from strength to strength, the girls did not stop and wanted more goals.
Our third came from another great corner from Isla that Vanessa got her head to only for it to rebound of one of the defenders straight back to Vanessa who shot with such force no one was saving it.
1-3
For our 3rd match on the trot we got a fourth goal, which was a fantastic play. Miley launched a great kick from goal for Ayse to get on the end of, Ayse passed it out wide to Scarlett who sent over a first time cross returning to Ayse who slot the ball home in a wonderful football move.
1-4
In the dying couple of minutes our heads went down from non stop running and Harpenden managed to bag a 2nd but were not coming back.
2-4
Some really good performances today. Ryah was ever strong in defence and there were some great passes from Darcie in midfield. Charlotte, Hetty, Beth and Abi were solid and with our super goalie Miley taking charge in goal.
A special mention to Isla who is really growing into her new position and Vanessa who just did not stop. Scarlett was full of not stop running and totally deserved her 3 assists today. Two great goals from Ayse giving her 6 in 3 games.
