Under 13’s vs Dunfermline

Our under 13’s took on league leaders Dunfermline on Saturday and took the game to their more fancied opponents from the start, applying good pressure and not allowing the opposition time to settle on the ball.

The first goal of the game came from a defence splitting pass by Ynes Kerr which found Kerys Blythe, who finished well. Strollers continued to press and were switching the ball well using both flanks.

Despite our girls dominating most of the first half, Dunfermline managed to pull a goal back and the match was level at half time.  The second half started much the same as the first, with the Strollers keeping up the tempo with Brodie Clark taking charge in the middle of the park.

Strollers defence was as solid as ever and limited Dunfermline to very few chances.  The second half saw a flurry of goals and the Strollers were not to be phased by the league leaders, running out an astonishing 5-2 winners at the final whistle.  The was quite possibly our girls best performance of the season so far against a strong Dunfermline side.

Due to not participating in the Lisa Evans League Cup this coming weekend, The under 13’s will take on Dunfermline all over again in their next game on Wednesday 17th June at 7pm. Here’s hoping we can secure a double win over the league leaders.
