Sunday’s match report below, written by Amy Russell 👩‍💻 ✍️💜🩵

A dominant 10-0 performance saw Duffield cruise past eighth-placed Buxton Juniors to maintain their perfect start in the Derbyshire Ladies League Division Two table.

The result kept Duffield joint top of the table, with four wins from four, highlighting the progress and determination shown by the players and coaches since this time last season.

Duffield started strongly, with Ella Kew breaking the deadlock in the 15th minute with a superb free kick.

Lucy Cunningham doubled the lead in the 29th minute, driving down the right before finishing from a tight angle.

Amelia Horwood soon made it three, turning home the rebound after Kew’s shot was saved.

Duffield continued their goalscoring form, with Aaminah Tafazal making it four after Cunningham’s cross was helped on by Horwood, allowing the striker to pick her spot.

Horwood then added a fifth in the 39th minute, reacting quickest once again to slot home the rebound after another Kew effort was saved.

The hosts were unfortunate not to be awarded a penalty when Amelia Horwood was brought down by two onrushing Buxton players while bearing down on goal.

Duffield then headed into the break with a commanding five-goal advantage, but showed no signs of slowing after the restart.

Just five minutes into the second half, Cunningham saw her penalty saved after Horwood was brought down in the penalty area.

However, Duffield soon added a sixth, with Tafazal racing onto an excellent ball over the top from Kew, before calmly finishing past the goalkeeper.

Defender Alicia Chambers then quickly made it seven, rising highest to head home from a corner.

Tafazal and Horwood then both completed their hat-tricks within minutes of each other, before Horwood rounded off the scoring in the 84th minute, claiming her fourth of the afternoon.

Sunday saw a commanding performance from Duffield at Eyes Meadow, extending their winning run, and providing plenty of confidence before next weekend’s clash with fellow league leaders Belper Town Reserves.

Amy Russell 👩‍💻 Match Report 💙🤍✍️

Duffield came from behind to continue their winning run.

Duffield came out victorious against a strong Matlock Cavendish side, seeing them progress to the next round of the plate competition.

A strong second-half performance from Duffield saw them overturn a 2-1 scoreline, with the hosts proving a tough test for Duffield on Sunday afternoon.

The match began in scrappy fashion at Cavendish Fields, with neither side able to gain a foothold on the game.

Matlock Cavendish were the side first to settle into the game, with their frontline posing a constant threat going forward.

It was Duffield who opened the scoring however, when Ella Kew rose brilliantly to meet Amy Russell’s corner with a superb header 38 minutes in.

Matlock were quick to respond, levelling the scoring just before the forty-five-minute mark, rewarding their impressive first-half efforts.

It was the home side who found themselves ahead shortly after the break, leaving Duffield with work to do.

Duffield immediately turned up the tempo, with second-half substitute Lucy Cunningham going close multiple times in quick succession.

Minutes later, the scoreline was levelled by Amelia Horwood, adding another goal to her growing tally, tapping home an excellent Katie Potts cross.

The comeback was then completed when Amelia Horwood scored her second of the afternoon, this time latching onto a through ball from Amy Russell, before firing the ball home.

Captain Caitlin Else added another for Duffield late on, with her left-footed strike beating the goalkeeper at the near post.

After a tough test in Matlock, Duffield got the job done, seeing their name go into the hat for the next round of the Plate competition.

Duffield are back in action in two weeks’ time, with the side facing Melbourne Dynamo Development in the County Cup.
