Two wins on the trot puts Marlborough 2s top of the league!

After a brilliant win from our first game back last week, Marlborough 2nds were even more determined to keep that winning streak high. Before the team played North wilts, captain Lou gave a team talk discussing how amazing we played last week and how it was still only week 2 but, what can do as a team to improve. North Wilts had some great enthusiasm and a strong mid field however, our mid fielders Jodie, Lou, Georgie and Marcelle were able to push through to the inners, Shahla and Phoebe, and drive up to score the first goal of the game by Phoebe. Not far behind, North Wilts scored an excellent goal although, keeping positive forward Teddy, ran well up the pitch passing to Deborah scoring another strong goal – the Dellar goal! Just before half time, Phoebe and the forwards Rosie, Immy, Ellie, Teddy and Deborah had some great coordination causing Phoebe to score again making it 3-1 to us.

In the second half we went out even more as a team, while not letting the weather destroy our ambition. North wilts also came back stronger however, mid fielders and inners made some great runs so Phoebe made her break and scored another goal. With the same strategy, the inners and forwards made a run and used the width of the pitch so forward Rosie, scored a goal. Defenders, Sarah and Sophie, and goal-keeper Emma, were exceptional at upholding the streak and not letting the North Wilts forwards having a strike however, after going back and forth they finally scored. Marlborough put the pressure back on, and phoebe once again won a great last goal making the final score 6-2 to Marlborough 2nds! Ecstatic with our win, we cannot wait to play again.
