Day Two
Community teams give Herald WPL clubs a run for their money in the TAFE NSW Women’s State Cup
It was clear blue skies and sunny conditions for Day Two of the TAFE NSW Women’s State Cup.
Teams from Group A and Group C started the morning off with a community football clash between University Women’s FC and Boambee Eagles, and a close call between Merewether United FC and Cooks Hill FC.
Continuously putting pressure on the University defence, the Eagles hit both posts and the crossbar in a strong start to their TAFE NSW Women’s State Cup campaign.
The Eagles scored in the 3rd minute through Jasmine Kruger, after dominating the early possession.
Using their strong forwards to their advantage, Kylie McDonald secured a hat-trick within the space of nine minutes to give Boambee a 4 nil lead at the half time break.
The second half saw a few chances for the University Women’s side to get their name on the score-board, but they could not deliver.
Boambee Eagles rounded off the scoring in the 49th minute with Siobhan Deam, securing an impressive 5 nil victory over University Women’s FC.
Herald WPL defending Champions Merewether United and community football team Cooks Hill United kicked off Group C in a tight game, with Cooks Hill taking a shock 1 nil lead in the 11th minute through Lulu Suter.
Cooks Hill continued to come out strong with Emma Gelling creating a number of chances, but Merewether keeper Taylah Gray held her ground.
Merewether equalised shortly before half time thanks to a goal by Lori Depczynski.
Cooks Hill ramped up the defence after the break as Merewether encroached into their territory for the majority of play, but Merewether forwards were unable to find the killer blow.
The game look destined to lead into a penalty shootout until Freya Clifton managed to poke through the strong backline five minutes from time.
Depczynski then made an excellent one-on-one shot that was deflected by Cooks Hill keeper Jordana Stavros, making an great save.
A highlight throughout the day saw the Herald WPL Under 20’s Football Mid North Coast (FMNC) side dominate the defending Herald WPL Champions Merewether United scoring three (3) unanswered goals.
FMNC made it two from two, toppling Cooks Hill United FC, thanks to a late own goal.
This result puts them at the top of Group C, placing them in a good position to start on Sunday for Day Three of the TAFE NSW Women’s State Cup.
Later into the day, Westfield Matilda Gema Simon started the Group B encounter against Mayfield United FC, as Southy looked to continue their impressive start to the TAFE NSW Women’s State Cup.
Simon immediately impressed, setting up Mary-Jane Mason for the opening goal, who scored again shortly after.
Mayfield had their opportunity early in the second half as they broke the solid Wolves defence, but Southy keeper Jessica Sanderson managed to push it aside for a corner.
The game remained end to end throughout the second half, with Simon nabbing the Wolves their 3rd goal for the game.
Group D teams Adamstown Rosebud JSC and Kurri Kurri Women’s FC started off with early shots from the Rosebuds that fell wide of the goal.
With Kurri Kurri struggling to get out of their own half, Olivia Trinka had a shot on goal, but Kurri Kurri keeper Kali-Mae Anderson managed to palm it away.
A cross from Olivia Trinka wasn’t cleared by the Kurri Kurri defence, allowing Annika D’Amico to place the ball in the bottom corner.
Kurri Kurri fought back with Simmone Wetzler taking a long range shot but it didn’t trouble the Rosebud keeper.
Into the second half, Belle Hewitt scored from outside the box with Rosebuds continuing to maintain possession of the ball resulting in a further 3 goals.
The Knock-Out Finals Series will take place on Sunday 15th July from 9:00am with the top two teams from each group playing off against each other in a three phase finals series (quarters, semis & final).
