We stayed really positive, with Isla, Lyla and Lylia in particular showing great technique to work the ball into the channels for a series of breaks where we were unlucky to not get ahead.
The breakthrough did come midway through the first half from a Millie long throw which bounced into the path of Farrah who toe-poked home.

Hide AdWe generally remained on the front foot but Clifton had skilful players and our backing had to use their pace and strength on several occasions to limit the shots which Thea handled well in goal.
Isla was really unlucky not to score a volley from a Lyla cross and Farrah also hit the inside of the list from range.
The second half was a bit closer but CN extended their lead Farrah chasing a well saved shot to muscle her way onto the ball and score.
Clifton pounced a few minutes later scoring high into the net.

Hide AdWith 10 to go a nice Lylia through ball once again set Farrah free who shoulder-barged herself into position and finished well into the far corner for her hattrick
An equally good finish from Clifton set up a nervy few minutes but CN stood firm for a well deserved win, everyone battling really hard all match.
Farrah deservedly won player of the match for her goals.
