The Under 13’s made the short trip to the Lomond Centre to take on Lomond Colts in the second and final Glenrothes derby of the season on Saturday. Strollers having won the previous encounter 3-0 back in April this year.

Early in the match, Strollers fell behind to a well taken free kick from just outside the box after the ball had struck Brodie Clark’s upper arm for the foul.

Lomond Colts played defensively and made it difficult for our girls to break them down but, soon after the opening goal, Strollers were quickly back in the game. Some fantastic passing and team work saw Denver Hopkins and Brodie Clark score in quick succession to see the first half end 1-2.

Strollers started the second half much better and played with far more pace.  Kerys Blyth got the goal she had been seeking all afternoon to make it 1-3, and in a quick burst strollers got another from a great finish by Rachel Lee. Towards the end of the game Kerys took her chances and struck the ball from outside the box which went over the Lomond Colts’ ‘keeper’s head and into the back of the net for her second and Strollers’ fifth of the game.

Final score: Strollers 5 Lomond Colts 1

We now have a 2 week break in the season before heading into the last two games of the season to decide 2nd and 3rd place in the SWF fife/Perth league.
