Wotton-under-Edge Ladies 3rds 4 North Wilts 2nds 2

WOTTON Ladies thirds have moved up to sixth in the table after gaining another three points away at North Wilts.

The first goal came early in the game with player of the match Jenny Cruickshank passing the ball across the D to Stephanie Hines who sent it behind the keeper to Sarah King on the right post for her to score.

North Wilts were quick to respond with a goal at the other end.

Wotton’s second goal came when Hines got passed a couple of defenders to pass the ball to Abby Phillips to smack the ball into the goal.

Again, North Wilts responded with a strong attack and scored 30 seconds before half time. The second half remained quite an evenly matched game, with both teams having chances to score.

The third goal was scored by Cruickshank, following a high-pressure attack by the midfield and forwards.

Goal number four was scored by King when the keeper went down to save the first shot on goal and King followed it up with determination to get past her and put Wotton 4-2 up with a couple of minutes left of the game.
