TACTICAL REVIEW

The Narrative
What a game! It was a true battle on the pitch today as the girls faced off against a Pennington side just as hungry for the win as we were. The first half was an incredibly tight affair, with both teams cancelling each other out and leading to a 0-0 deadlock at the interval. However, Radcliffe’s persistence paid off in the second half, securing a hard-fought 1-0 victory.
Performance Level

The match was defined by grit and defensive discipline. After a stalemate in the first period, the team showed great patience to wait for their opening. The breakthrough finally came from a moment of magic: Tanushri showcased incredible pace and control to drive the ball down the wing, delivering a pinpoint cross to the back post for Olivia to calmly slot home. The team then displayed excellent game management to see out the result against a tough opponent.

Standout Moments

The defensive unit was the backbone of today's success, with several players earning high praise:

Opposition’s Player of the Match: Sophia – A massive performance in goal. Her positioning and crucial saves kept the clean sheet intact, complemented by some "cheeky" game management to seal the win.

Coach’s Player of the Match: Izzy – In her first game back from injury, Izzy was tireless on the right wing and fearless in the challenge.

Player’s Player of the Match: Evie G – A total rock at the back, using her strength and determination to shut down every opposition attack.

Parents’ Player of the Match: Belle – A fantastic display that clearly impressed the supporters on the sidelines.
