Hacton 8 - 0 Elm Park

December 08, 2014
The Hacton girls' football team recently claimed an impressive victory in their match against Elm Park Primary. Emily (Year 6) reports:

Excitement filled the air as the ref blew his whistle to signal the start of the match against Elm Park. Elsie ran in for a tackle. Passes were made followed by a whack of the ball from Katie and the whistle was blown. 1-0. The crowd went wild and, with determination, 2 more fantastic goals were scored by Katie. 3-0. The whistle was blown and Maddie made a long run up the field before she passed to Emily. Defender blocking her way, Emily sneakily smacked the ball in between the girl's legs making it 4-0. Once the centre kick was taken, Amy took possession of the ball and made a long pass to Elsie. A shot was made, but unfortunately it was saved with the goalkeepers feet. Emily was determined to score a goal and went in for the rebound making it 5-0. Time flew by and Hacton were on the road to victory when Katie tapped the ball into the top right-hand corner of the net. 6-0. Suddenly, the tides turned and our opponent's striker came charging into our half. Grace made an excellent tackle, but Elm Park recovered quickly. They had a shot and it was looking bad for our girls, but Jade made a spectacular save. 5 minutes were left and Katie received the ball from Alex and walked it into the net! 7-0. The Elm Park midfielders drove the ball slowly towards our goal as our team tirelessly tried to stop them. Megan made an excellent tackle and passed up to Kayleigh Ann, as she ran up the field. Crossing it to Katie, she knocked it in leaving the score at the final whistle 8-0.

Well done girls!
