Aycliffe U13 Girls 4 v Consett 5
First half started and Consett were on top but Aycliffe grew into the game. We were closing down well and trying to play on the counter attack. A few chances came our way but fighting against a strong wind was slowing the game down a little. First half finished 0-4 . A quick half time chat and a few changes Aycliffe started the second half on top. The girls showed their character and playing some great football and managed to close the gap to 2-4, fairly quickly. Then the girls found that crucial pass and found the back of the net again, 3-4 and big smiles all round. A real team performance was needed today and they all stepped up.

With only 11 players available against a good team we knew the game was going to be challenging. First half against the wind was tough with Kian having to make some good saves in goal.

Second half and Hetton came out the blocks not bothered about the wind against them scoring 2 goals early on, followed by a 3rd. MOTM: Zac.
