East End Academy 3 - 3 Victoria Park Vixens
📣 Match report from the Gaffa,
A performance for the ages by the players yesterday against a very well, composed and defending champions. The match had it all, from goals, to good saves, great challenges, bad referee calls but ultimately the points were shared.
The team played brilliantly showing immense character, going a goal down early but responding with her first goal Mackenzie. However, scoreline going into the break was 3-1.
The second half was dominant, lots of possession, good movement and opportunities created but no breakthrough. Until Farha in 75th mins, smash and grab kinda goal. Going into the last 15, it was 3-2 and momentum/belief had risen.
It was then, all about a matter of time and it came in 84th mins, a cross from the left from Libby and neatly finished by Klesha, matched by a celebration too. Came close to a winner but it wasn’t to be.
Our player of the match went to Harriet, absolute beast at the back defensively and her constant energy up and down the pitch, galvanizing the players around her. So proud in how she continues to evolve her game.
Then, to our new debutant Rachel. Her composure, assessing threat, breaking up the play and supporting in attack was nothing short of perfect! The energy to do the box to box 👏🏼 we are excited to have you join us.
