U13 Girls - 1st ever game !

Our first ever competitive league game away at Aldershot.

Aldershot started brighter and quickly built a 2 goal lead taking a 2-0 score line in at HT. Into the 2nd half we started competing, dominated possession and territory creating chances. We got hit on the counter for 3-0 but still continued to press forward. Then we conceded a harsh penalty for handball for 4-0 but again we kept attacking and creating chance after chance after chance. Finally we got our breakthrough, Sophie Freeman converting from close range. We kept knocking on the door but our day ended with a 4-1 defeat. Very proud of these girls for that second half display.

The girls will take so many positives from today's first ever game .

U14 GIRLS - EAGLES

Away v AFC Portchester

The girls started their 2021/22 campaign with a goal inside the first minute, following a sweet left strike from Lexie who caught the defence napping. A succession of attacks led to a further goal on 7 minutes, again a left foot strike from Lexie after a sweet throughball from newcomer Priya.

AFC Portchester then came alive and gave us a good game of football to see out the half, with a comeback goal to take us in at 1-2 at half time.

We continued to play with 3 at the back despite Portchester pushing with 3-4 attackers, and the girls kept tight infront of superb GK Polly to keep the opposition out of the game in our half of the pitch.

At the other end, the girls continued to create chances, with Elvin slotting home a goal on her debut on 41 minutes, and Lexie completing her hatrick on 61' to bring home a final result of 1-4!

U14 Lionesses - 1st time in Purple!!

Off to a battling start for AFC Stoneham Lionesses going 1-0 down to Portchester, after settling into the game the girls played some amazing football which led to Angel Davis scoring a hatrick before half time. Angel getting her 4th goal straight after half time with great play from the rest of the girls. Porchester pulled one back making it 4-2 but Angel was on fire making it 5 goals for her with the end score 5-2 to AFC Stoneham. Amazing work rate all round.

Player of the match went to super keeper Millie Mitchell who pulled of some fantastic saves.

A fantastic start to the season for our girls teams !!

Well done to everyone !
