Match report

It was a warm and sunny afternoon when Hahndorf Under 13 Girls met with Torrens Valley. Torrens Valley started strongly, and Hahndorf’s starting defense of Cyra Filipowicz, Charlotte Daly and Ruby Tully worked hard to keep them out. After a quick transition in play, Hahndorf’s  Rose Elston finished off the slick play with a goal.

Players from both teams showed great skills in the even contest. Filipowicz was solid in defense, repeatedly denying opposition attacking runs. Hahndorf’s starting midfield players, Amiel Kerber, Erin Miller and Rebecca Abrahams, regularly transitioned the ball into attack, and on one occasion found Gracie Curtis space on the right wing. Curtis completed a clever cross to Elston, who’s shot was saved.

Mid way through the first half, Torrens Valley capitalized on a fast break, to equalize the score at 1 – 1. 

Charlotte Fairley was busy in the midfield, chasing down opposition players and moving the ball forward with good passing. Violet Elston performed very well under pressure in goals and made repeat saves to deny Torrens Valley. Late in the first half, R Elston again found the back of the net to give Hahndorf a 2-1 lead.

The contest remained close in the second half with players from both teams making attacking runs forward. Miller made regular runs down the wing, using her skill to keep possession of the ball. After some strong midfield play, Torrens Valley scored an equalizer.

Desperate defense, and ‘nearly’ moments in attack by both teams had the crowd on the edge of their seats. After a great contest, the game finished as a 2-All draw.

The Hahndorf Under 13 Girls wish to thank Torrens Valley for a great game.
