AFC Newbury U12 Girls 4 Basingstoke Town Colts 0
Newbury produced their best performance of the season with a convincing win over the visitors. Not for the first time this season it was the captain Lucy who opened the scoring and she did so with a powerful strike, which fizzed into the top corner giving the keeper no chance. The home team continued to dominate and the second goal came when Ruby broke down the wing and cut the ball back for Sophie to slot the ball home from close range.

The second half had barely kicked off when Lucy again struck when she crossed the ball but the low drive, which slipped through the keeper’s hands into the net. The visitors did come close to getting one back when they hit the post but Kellie was quick to react and saved the rebound. Newbury’s midfield continued to dominate and the win was completed when Sophie again got on the end of a cross and fired home.
