Today’s Game was our second game to Asfordby Amateurs U16, this time at our home ground.
In goal today we had Jodie. Defenders – Ruby, Faye, Kaylee, Rebecca and Hannah. Midfield – Mabel (c), Nellie, Jess, Tilly, Evie and Ellie as our striker.
First Half – We started the game off well, putting pressure on the opposing team as soon as the whistle blew. Evie taking on 3 players and scoring in the 3rd minute. There was a good battle and Asfordby scored to get themselves back in the game. After a bit of great football Evie then went 1v1 with the keeper and placed the ball into the back of the net followed by a scramble in the box and Jess scoring her first goal with the team!! There was then a great battle between both teams, Asfordby staying strong and fighting back with a few shots on target that Jodie was ready for. Just before the half time whistle Evie scored another goal after a great run with the ball. Half time score 4-1
Second Half – After a well deserved breather, Asfordby came back strong and putting us on the back foot making our defenders work hard. We also had several chances at another goal but Asfordby’s goalkeeper was on fire and was having a great game. We gained a corner, Evie struck the ball and it came off one of Asfordbys players and went straight into the net. Tilly, very composed went on to score a cracking goal after seeing the chance to chip the goalkeeper.
Final Score – Oadby & Wigston 6 – 1 Asfordby Amateurs
