Match report

 

After a wet week, a sun drenched and water soaked Aldgate pitch presented itself for the match between Hahndorf and Stirling Inited. The game leader was resplendent in his Richmond gear as the Hahndorf boys kicked off. Connor Ozolins and Sol Cootes working together had an early shot on goal but the keeper proved not to be stuck in the mud. Play bounced around before Ashon Broadbent-Shaw had the ball again on the edge of the box but the Stirling defender thwarted any further advance. Defenders Zack Perkins, Simran Singh and Caleb Earley made short work of any Stirling leads returning the ball to the Hahndorf attack again and again. Cootes made a dash forward but kicked the ball straight to the goalie. Jackson Bidgood lifted the ball off the ground with a big kick that the goalie just couldn’t hold on to scoring the first goal of the game. Stirling kicked off and made a charge but star goalie Lachlan Gardner was not letting it get past him. Back in the Hahndorf attack and Ozolins scored again for Hahndorf. The ball ventured back into the defensive line before Perkins gave it a massive kick up the field to Jhett Frost who took an impressive shot on goal from half way making the goalie work hard. In the last minutes of the half Lucca Falvo-Lopez found the ball but just couldn’t get it past the goalie. Second half and with the mud brushed off both teams were back at it. The Hahndorf boys worked together to set up a number of plays keeping the Stirling team under pressure. A final small toe poke by Broadbent-Shaw was fumbled by the Stirling goalie for the final goal of the game.
