Kicking off the weekend games, our Men’s Reserves team took on Olympia FC Warriors at Kelvedon Park, nabbing the game after a 65th unite goal by Jake Stuart. Later in the day, our Men’s Championship Pirates were also able to keep a clean sheet in their 4-0 victory over the Warriors. In a fiery game that saw 5 yellow cards distributed in total, we saw Pizzarazzi POTM, Noah Gardner, nab a brace thanks to the relentless trouble he gave Olympia’s defence. Additional, late-game goals by Jasper Gardner and Ewan Larby made the victory all the sweeter.
On Tuesday night our WSL squad played their postponed Round 17 against our neighbouring Kingborough Lions. The game looked evenly matched from the start but it was the Lions who got onto the score sheet first. However, when our star signee, Jessie Williams, received an opportunity to equalise with a penalty only minutes later, she got the job done in a cool, collected manner. Pirate Captain, Daisy Parsell, found an opportunity to catch the Lions’ defence off guard and went for a solo strike reminiscent of Sam Kerr’s World Cup banger, putting our Pirates ahead before the half time whistle. The team returned to the field with maintained composure, and after Bea Thurston-Regan bagged an 87th minute goal the game was won 3-1 giving our WSL squad a final burst of wind in their sails as they see out the final few games of the season.
Well done to our teams for their great results last week, and best of luck to all our teams playing this weekend! Let’s get out and support our Pirates for the last few games of their seasons.
