Lassies through to the Quarter Finals!
With all the men’s teams knocked out of the cup it was all eyes on the Lassies as they took on Brooklands in the round of 16 of the Womens Metropolitan Cup at Elstead reserve.
With many of the gents staying back from the Intra-Club game in which Team Osunwa destroyed Team Dodsworth (but that’s another story) there was an electric atmosphere as the anticipation built and the lassies did not disappoint with a 13 goal thriller.
If you can call a 10-3 win thrilling…which we can with the quality of the goals on display!
Louise Porter opened the scoring with a deft header before going on to add another seconds later after dancing past several defenders and fooling the keeper with a clever finish.
Deena Hinedi put away a Maria Browne cross five minutes later with a driven volley to extend the lead to 3-0 within 15 minutes.
Browne got in on the goal scoring act herself with a peach of a goal before being denied her second by the upright. But as all good strikers should Porter followed up to claim her hat-trick and officially open the flood gates.
Porter has scored so many goals this season that we’ve had to restart the counter but we can safely say that this was her 5th to 10th hat-trick of the season.
And speaking after the game Porter was pleased with the result and the development of the side.
“We’re excited for Quarter-Finals.” She said.
“Its crazy there a lot of girls who hadn’t played [club] soccer before but just the way everyone is coming together especially the way we play our games with passing its cool.”
“It obviously nice to score six goals but I’m more happy about the way we played as a team today.”
“We still have a lot to work on but its all been positive.”
Porter got her fourth after Wee Em Cansell played her through before the loudest cheer of the after happened as Brooklands scored from the penalty spot. We still love you though Navina!
Porter added two more for a double hat-trick. Let me type that out again. A DOUBLE HAT-TRICK.
Brooklands added two more goals while Browne claimed her second and coach Ange Grehan tucked away a penalty to put aside her last penalty crashing off the cross bar!
The Lassies have been drawn against East Fremantle SC from Division 1 and will be played on the 4th of August at Wauhop Park and we wish them all the best!
