Girls Soccer: Ambrit 1-0 St George's

Ambrit used TWENTY different players in a tight match that was settled by Mallika's fantastic first half strike from the left.
Against a physically imposing and skilful team, Ambrit's defence provided a solid foundation for their forward play in the first half. An all-sixth grade trio of Maria, Valentina and Angelica kept their nerve and concentration and cleared ball after ball back up the field. Later Valeria came in to add a bit of experience and Sofia came on too and made a saving tackle when it looked certain that the visitors would score. Lavinia was on form and moved quickly to pick up whatever loose ball that got through.
Julia meanwhile was knocking good passes to Greta and Mallika and it was from one of these passes down the left that Mallika outsprinted her marker and planted a solid shot past the goalkeeper
In the second half, Camilla was everywhere and ruled the pitch with a mixture of controlled aggression and intelligent passing. Olivia came on on the left and managed three shots on target (one came back off the post!) and Maria Flavia took over from Greta and nearly scored with a header. Giulia made herself a chance too from a corner but the game ended 1-0.
