Umina Eagles win return game against Kanwal

The Women's Premier League's return game between Umina Eagles and Kanwal was "match of the round" in Central Coast soccer competition on Sunday, August 13.

This time Umina came out victors, 2 - 0, after having lost to Kanwal just two weeks before.

The well-rested Kanwal side made the trip to face reigning champions Umina at their home ground.

Umina started the better of the two sides, dominating possession as they showed patience building up from the back.

However, Kanwal defended resolutely to keep them at bay.

Umina came close to opening the scoring when Kate Styles broke through, rounded the keeper, and rolled the ball into an empty net only for Haylee Starkey to stick out a foot and turn it wide.

It wouldn't take Kate long to score.

She was played through by Hayley Fulwood, again rounding the oncoming Kanwal goalie Kim Burke, and this time calmly slotting home the opening goal from a tight angle.

Halftime saw an opportunity for Kanwal to make a few tweaks and this seemed to work as Kanwal dominated the second stanza without reward.

The home side doubled their lead when a perfectly-weighted pass by Kirby Squires found Hannah Batten who broke down the left and chipped the opposition goalkeeper from a near-impossible angle.

That goal came against the run of play and, despite conceding the goal, Kanwal continued their territorial advantage without reward and it was Umina who defended well to keep a clean sheet.

Match official was Jeffrey Smith.
