Hibs Girls U15 13 : Crammond 0

 

Played at St Augustine ’s Playing Fields, Edinburgh on 10th December 2005

 

A dull but dry Saturday saw Hibs U15 Girls kick-off against bottom of the table Crammond. Hibs were back to full strength with the return of Charlotte, Dionne (in goal), Marielle and Laura C.

 

Hibs were quickly on the attack and forced a corner that was scrambled away by the Crammond defence. It was very much one way traffic as Hibs parked themselves in the Crammond half of the pitch.

 

A Coral free kick was kept in by Rosie who cut back to Bryony who was unlucky not to score.

 

It was all Hibs at this stage and Laura S saw her shot go narrowly past the post on 10 minutes. This was followed by a great run from Gillian on the right wing but found Laura S offside.

 

The breakthrough came after Gillian side-footed in following great work from Gemma and Danni on the left wing after 13 minutes. Hibs continued to pressure and Gemma rounded off a great run with a well placed shot to the corner of the net to make it 2-0.

 

It was 3-0 after the Crammond defence bundled in the ball from Charlotte 's corner - an o.g. but Charlotte will no doubt lay claim to it!

 

There were not many attacks from the visitors and any attempts were safely mopped up by Coral, Ashley and Rebekah.

 

Hibs were unlucky not to go further ahead with great runs from Laura S and Gillian.

 

Gemma showed how to do it with another excellent goal on 25 minutes with a powerful shot after carving her way through the Crammond defence to make it 4-0.  She then got her hat-trick with a shot from just inside the box after good play from Bryony and Rosie on the wing to make it 5-0.

 

Hibs kept up the pressure with corner after corner and it was no surprise when Rosie made it 6-0 with a looping shot that beat the keeper just before half time.

 

Hibs made some changes in the second half with Gillian moving in goal to allow Dionne up front with Marielle replacing Rosie and Laura C on for Ashley.

 

Hibs were immediately on the attack with both Laura S and Dionne coming close.

 

Laura S at last got on the score sheet after being put through by Marielle to make it 7-0.

 

It was quickly followed by Gemma's fourth after she picked up the ball on the halfway line and ran through the defence before firing high into the net to make it 8-0.

 

Gillian saved well from the first Crammond attack midway through the second half.

 

It was back to business as usual however when Dionne made it 9-0 when she latched on to Coral's deflected shot.

 

Coral got on the scoresheet herself when she made it 10-0 with a 10 yard shot into the corner.

 

Charlotte got number eleven with a chip over the defence from an acute angle.

 

Rebekah made it a dozen with an excellent chip from outside the box.

 

Gemma made it 13-0 with another just before full time. 

 

A very satisfactory day for Hibs although they will be aware that the Crammond team are in the process of establishing themselves.
