Match report NMJFC Under 12s girls - 29/04/23
vs Wilmslow
Quick of the mark, the Wilmslow side attacked and opened the score sheet within 30 seconds. The New Mills side still putting it in and some great work from Brooke in that central defensive midfield position to get the ball away. A big nod to Jaz on the left wing who grafted and showed her strength on the ball.
Ava & Ellie working well together and sheer grit and team mentality from Ava throughout.
Unfortunately, Wilmslow scored again going into half time.
The dreaded 2 nil down and being able to stay motivated hung above our heads but with a different set up Freya L came on 2nd half & closed the gap. whilst Freya B was unlucky not to score, being closed down in the last moment by the blues in the box.
A battle of strength and will ensued between Freya L and their number 9 and frustration set in with the score gap widening. We dropped Ava back to defend who showed great attitude and reliability and with confidence got the ball back up the pitch.
Jay’s pace and cover also shone, chased down players, played some clever football when seeing out the ball or getting it back down the wing.
Great to see the self-belief and confidence & the decisions you are making. A highlight of the game for us on the sidelines was watching Delilah make numerous saves, coming out for the goal kicks and using her voice to push players up the pitch, brilliant to see you gaining confidence and giving it your all for your team, impressive!
POTM for her adaptability, confidence, vision, reliability and sheer joy of the game is Ava.
Spot on!
