GIRLS UNDER 12s LEAGUE MATCH At Bayham, Tunbridge Wells SATURDAY 13th OCTOBER 2007
Tunbridge Wells Foresters 3 Jarvis Brook Girls 0
For the first time this season Foresters started a match by putting pressure on the opposition, as opposed to being under pressure for the first part of the game. In a comfortable first half the girls managed to keep possession of the ball for 80% of the time.
After only one minute Harriet Montgomery scored the opener with the usual skill and panache that we have come to expect over the last few months. A beautiful threaded pass through was met with a quick turn and strike from Harriet. 1 – 0 and it was looking daunting for Jarvis Brook.
However, after a few missed opportunities, Foresters had were awarded a penalty after a late timed challenge. Harriet stepped up and smashed the ball straight down the middle and the red machine was marching on again.
Moments later, Harriet capped a brilliant half-time hat-trick after a cross flew over from the right wing, which was sent crashing into the Jarvis Brook net. The game was over, but it wasn’t to turn out easy.
The second half was a lively affair, with chances at both ends, but a stalemate which is tantamount to Jarvis Brook’s tenacity and effort. Considering they were three nil down, their heads never dropped and they played some good football.
Another fantastic victory which after two games in the Under 12s league, leaves Foresters sitting nicely at the top of the table, ahead of Southdown AFC, with a plus 6 goal difference. A superb effort and we continue to get better and better. Well done to the girls.
The next Under 12s match is away at Paddock Wood on Saturday 27th October.
