On the eve of the Australia V Ghana game, Mitchie took on a Park Ridge side looking to turn round a first round defeat by Mitchie – and who had about as much hope as Australia did against Ghana! (jokes) The Mitchie girls were soon on the attack and shots from Kasey and Natasha kept the Park Ridge defence busy. On 20 mins Mitchie opened the scoring with a well placed shot from Natasha, which was almost followed up 10 mins later by a goal mouth scramble from STAR STRIKER Collette; Jen Roberts swept up the crumbs expertly to make it 2-0 with a run and shot. At half time 2-0, despite Bianca’s professional dummy (AKA accidental air swing) in the Mitchie defensive half. The second half opened with a more determined Park Ridge chasing and tackling for every ball, an enforced change of goal keeper saw Rhiannon depart the pitch to be replaced by a nervous Kiki. Under strict instructions to “keep it away from me!!”, the defence held steady with the only vague threats to Kiki’s underwear coming from a corner and a long-range free kick, which sailed harmlessly over the bar. Mitchelton had less possession but still managed to create several good opportunities, and on 70 mins Brigid was on the end of a 5 pass move to place the ball in the far corner of the net to make it 3-0.Full time score 3-0. Woman of the match: Kiki – Nice work Kik-Ster... Keeper extraordinaire!
