MATCH REPORT

Lindfield FC 2 (Angelina Ly 5’, 54’) vs Harrington United FC 1 (Rachel Butler 13’)

Lindfield FC has emerged victorious with a 2-1 win over Harrington United thanks to a brace from
Angelina Ly. Lindfield opened the scoring in the fifth minute with a good attacking move.
Some positive combination play down the left flank between Alyssia Mow and Ellie Burgess down the
left flank saw the former play a dangerous cross into the box. After a bounce and minor fumble,
Angelina Ly was on the spot to convert to give Lindfield their first goal.

Harrington recovered well and won a penalty through good play by Charlie Fulko. Rachel Butler stepped
up to take the penalty and converted clinically to even the scores in the 13th minute. Lindfield’s
goalkeeper Jessica Lum impressed in the first half with her distribution under pressure, while
Lilja Le Moenic showed her quality through her dribbling and close control in midfield.

Alyssia Mow went close for Lindfield after a good passing move involving Angelina Ly and Ellie Burgess
found the winger with space inside the box, who saw her shot saved well by Ripeka Robbins. A minute
later, down the other end, Charlize Fulko found space in behind after a clever pass from Rachel Butler
but could not convert against Lindfield goalkeeper Jessica Lum.

In the 53rd minute, Emily Baird tried a cheeky chip off a bouncing ball in the box, but only found the roof of the net. Moments later, another bouncing ball caused trouble for the Harrington defence, and Angelina Ly capitalised to put Lindfield ahead with a well-taken left-footed volley with six minutes remaining.

The goal proved to be enough for Lindfield, as they emerged victorious in the Under 14 Girls Champions of Champions tournament.
