Match report

On a gloriously sunny morning, Rangers hosted Hahndorf at the Ashton Oval. Chloe Pippos, Ryan Glynn, William Moran, Alfie McConville, Axel Pym (game captain), Patrick Griggs, Avery Buchanan, Asa Bartsch, and Victor Bartsch (goalkeeper) enthusiastically took the field. Hahndorf combined well to keep the ball in their scoring half and put pressure on the Rangers goalkeeper. Some good runs and excellent passes saw several Hahndorf shots at goal. Rangers had some impressive fast breaks, with capable defense from the Hahndorf back line.

Rangers made the most of their opportunities and scored the first goal of the match. Not to be denied, Hahndorf combined well in the midfield and A Bartsch scored the first Hahndorf goal of our U7 season, with much rejoicing from teammates and spectators alike. Rangers fought back, with a couple of well deserved goals.

The half time break allowed the teams to put fresh legs on the field. Several battle cries were heard from the Hahndorf team as they rushed from the half line toward the Rangers goalkeeper. Many scoring opportunities were unfortunately unsuccessful, until Glynn and later V Bartsch (twice) added to the Hahndorf scorecard. Rangers also added several goals in the second half, with solid defence from the Hahndorf backline and second-half goalkeeper Moran.

Thank you to the Rangers players and officials for a thrilling game. The progress in teamwork and gameplay from Hahndorf U7s has been a joy to watch. Keep up the great work Belinda and team!
