Missed the Women’s National Premier League Round 15? Here’s your wrap-up!
IN A NUTSHELL
Big goals in the last minutes of games and added drama to the NPLW! Belconnen struck twice very late to squeeze past a tough West Canberra Wanderers when it looked like dropped points might affect their title charge, whilst Olympic did drop points late, Alex Nealand levelling in stoppage time for Gungahlin at Ainslie Oval. So, all back in the balance at the top. And Brittany Palombi rattled in a hat-trick as Croatia smashed Tuggeranong at Deakin Stadium.
GOAL OF THE WEEK
Alexandra Nealand is making a habit of scoring goals that are as beautiful as they are important. She has outdone herself this Sunday with a superb right-footed swerved effort, to beat the best keeper in the league at the near post in injury time. A brilliant effort, and a point for her team. Take a bow, Alex.
PERFORMANCE OF THE WEEK
TEAM OF THE WEEK
COMING SOON
Olympic versus Croatia is always a grandstand match-up and the Round 16 encounter promises to be that and more. The match of the week? Maybe, maybe not, as Gungahlin United travel to tackle Belconnen United at McKellar Park. Meanwhile, West Canberra Wanderers and ANU WFC lock horns at Melrose Synthetic. Some tasty looking football treats all-round!
