FREETHORPE U12A GIRLS

THIS WEEK TRAVELLED TO ORMESBY TO PLAY A REARRANGED GAME FORM EARLIER IN THE SEASON.THE FIRST HALF SAW FREETHORPE GOING UP A STEEP HILL.THIS DID NOT STOP THE TEAM FROM CONTINUING THEIR GOOD FORM FROM RECENT GAMES.REBEKAH G WAS AGAIN OUTSTANDING IN DEFENCE PLAYING WITH HER HEAD AS WELL AS HER FEET BREAKING UP THE ORMESBY ATTACKS MANY TIMES.ERIN K LOOKED SHARP UP FRONT AND WORKED BACK HARD AS WELL WHEN HER DEFENDER BROKE FORWARD.JESSICA H STARTING THE MATCH HAD HER BEST GAME EVER RUNNING HARD FOR THE TEAM AND LOOKING DANGEROUS WHEN BREAKING FORWARD.

THE GAME WAS EVENLY MATCHED BUT AFTER 15 MINUTES ORMESBY BROKE THROUGH AND BEAT THE IMPRESSIVE LIBBY B IN GOAL TO TAKE THE LEAD.FREETHORPE REALLY TRIED TO FIND THE EQUALISER WITH EMMA P RUNNING ALL OVER THE PITCH PROMPTING FREETHORPE'S PLAY.ELLEN P AND ELIZABETH G DEFENDED WELL SUPPORTED WELL BY CLAIRE A IN MIDFIELD. THE HALF ENDED 0-1 TO ORMESBY.

THE SECOND HALF GOING DOWN THE HILL PROVED MORE DIFFICULT THAN EXPECTED.THE BALL WAS PLAYED TOO LONG AND WAS HARD TO CATCH.HOWEVER FREETHORPE PRESSED HARD AND NEVER GAVE UP THE CAUSE.LIBBY B IN GOAL HAD TO BE AT HER BEST TO KEEP OUT ORMESBY WHEN THEY BROKE AWAY UP THE HILL.THE SEARCH FOR THE EQUALISER ENDED IN HEARTBREAK WHEN LATE IN THE GAME ORMESBY SCORED THEIR SECOND QUICKLY FOLLOWED BY A THIRD.

A GOOD EVENLY CONTESTED MATCH PLAYED BY BOTH TEAMS A GAME WHEN FREETHORPE HAD LOTS OF THE PLAY WITHOUT CREATING CLEAR-CUT CHANCES.
G.O.M. EMMA P FOR AN EXCELLENT ALL-ROUND DISPLAY
