Princes Villa 1 Waverton 3

Back to winning ways for the Waverton girls in the penultimate game of the Autumn campaign. Waverton gained a two goal advantage early on, thanks to a screamer from Cara Grimes and another goal from top scorer Olivia Rhodes.

Princes Villa pulled one back in the second half from a looping shot from the right which just bounced off the underside of the bar and beyond Darcy's reach. The advantage though was regained near the end of the match when Ellie Riste, who had been in outstanding form all through the game, ran from her own half, beat a couple of defenders, before calmly placing the ball just inside the Villa 'keeper's right hand post. Darcy, with her super new gloves, was once again instrumental in keeping the score down with a series of fine saves in the second half.

Well done girls! Next up are high flying Vicars Cross Dynamoes on Saturday 8 December. Meet at Upton at 10:30am. As usual, please tel/text (07901 552261) or email Mike if you cannot make it.
