The Breakers U15s came away with a fantastic 5-2 win against Marion Cove in the sunshine at Breaker Park on Sunday.

 

For the first time in weeks, Coach O’Donnell had nearly a full team and the luxury of substitutes.

 

The girls were on the ball from the whistle and a fired up Amber Kim sent an early shot just over the the cross bar.

 

It didn’t take long for super striker Kayte O’Donnell to get the first goal; a great shot from a free kick on the 18 yard line.

 

Her partner up forward, Nila Mohring, got her first shortly after and it was looking dangerous for Cove.

 

The Marion forwards were speedy though and got the jump on the Breakers defence to get their first.

Another quick run by the visitors with no chance for goalie Ella Bryant, saw them get another soon after.

 

Full credit to the Breakers girls though, they didn’t drop their heads and Bryant stopped their third chance just minutes later.

 

Sophia Moore, Alanna Anderson and Tayla Perry showed excellent work in the midfield, creating chances for the forwards.

 

At the back, Lokke Rennerts, Estelle Dybala and Hannah Rowlands were frustrating the Marion attack. 

 

After the halftime break the girls were looking confident.

 

A fantastic throw in by Amber Kim in the attacking half found Mohring, who popped the ball up and over the defence to O’Donnell who scored her second and put the girls ahead again at 3-2.

 

Abby Ellis was unlucky not to score just after, from a corner.

 

It was Kim who got the fourth goal with a fantastic effort and showing her versatility and effectiveness in all areas of the pitch.

 

Zoe Warren was making good use of her head to get some effective play.

 

The girls had several shots on goal with Dybala, Ellis and Mohring all unlucky.

 

O’Donnell got the team’s fifth and final goal for the game from a great run and shot.

 

The girls are now fourth on the ladder with six wins from eight games and a couple of makeup games in hand.

 

Next week they travel north to take on Elizabeth Grove.
