Andover Aerials 7 - 2 Havant U12 girls

An excellent team performance by the Aerials resulted in a convincing victory for the Andover U12 side against Havant on Sunday.

Solid defending by Florence Bridges and Dotty Oostendorp left keeper Mellie Grader with little to do in the first half.

Ella Foster made excellent runs down the right wing and her crosses on two occasions were met by Alice Jones who slotted them in with ease. 

Eloise Winnett and Lottie Liddell were strong in midfield, making numerous tackles to win back possession and linking up with Isabella Lloyd in attack with some lovely passing.

Aerials’ strength was too much for Havant, with 3 further goals being scored by Foster and Liddell in the first half. 

A change of positions in the second half unsettled the Aerials a little, but Grader made some excellent saves to keep a clean sheet until late on in the game. However, Havants two goals were quickly cancelled out by two further goals by Oostendorp and Lloyd.

An excellent performance by a team that are growing in confidence week on week.

The match was officiated by Andy Jones, Ethan Mal and Hari Putt.
