Rd 6 Vipers v Woonona
Sunday saw the Russell Vale VIPERS go up against Woonona at the Cawley Park Cauldron…
The Vipers thought this week would be the week we hit the back of the net with the ever elusive 1st goal. With Woonona kicking off the Vipers were already starting the charge towards the Woonona defensive line, with Helen, Renae, Jennifer and Nicole making a couple of fast breaks. The Mid field missed our big kicker Erin but with Bonser, Jodie, Angela & Patsy stepping up we mixed it with the Woonona side…Linda and Mel helped out on the wings to start by pushing the ball out to keep the middle running free, as Laura once again proved to be a force to be reckoned with in defense having Paula on one side and Cheryl on the other the back line held strong under the attack of the Woonona strikers. Max stepped into goals this week, with Sheree away on other duties, Max did a brilliant effort even though she was under the weather and already nursing a crook ankle. A high over the top kick at goal made it under the cross bar giving Woonona 1 goal up with a second goal quick on its heels the Vipers were under pressure…With Max going over on her other ankle Cheryl stepped into goals keeping the side covered until a cracker of a shot flew past the goalie making them 3/0 up….
Rd 6 U11.3 v Unanderra
Before I talk about last weekend’s U11A game I just want to put the record straight. Contrary to the rumours circulating in the UK press and abroad I have not been approached by LIVERPOOL FC for the vacant position of Coach. Much as I love and worship the Anfield Club even if they did contact me, I am happily committed to the RV U11A’s until the end of the season.
Both teams went into this game unbeaten but only one team finished with their record intact, fortunately it was Russell Vale who came out on top. Although Unanderra were cheered on by a large contingent of away supporters, it was Russell Vale who took an early lead through Jordan Errington. The game swung from one end to the other but our defence once again were in outstanding form and managed to limit Unanderra to only a few shots in the entire game. Our passing style even had the away support comparing Russell Vale to Barcelona and it was no surprise when Jordan Errington added a second goal. Then almost on the stroke of HT Unanderra pulled a goal back with an unstoppable shot form the edge of the box.
State Cup Rd 1 U13.1 v AC United.
.
The U13 div 1 side entered into this year’s State Cup Competition which is a knockout tournament with teams participating from across the FNSW region. The team that enter are a mix of division 1 sides from the Sydney associations and some rep teams from country areas. As a traditional cup competition once you lose you are out of the tournament. Last year in the u12 group the boys won the first game, before being knocked out against a very strong Glenmore Park outfit.
.
This year in round 1 the boys were pitched against last year’s Grand finalist, AC United, who hail from the Southern Districts Association. AC United are currently leading the Southern District Competition and they play against teams the calibre of Marconi on a weekly basis. Without putting too much emphasis on it it was certainly going to be a difficult game for the boys when in recent weeks they have been struggling for some form.
