Well naturally the Devils did! Final score was 1-0 in a torrid match with plenty of spills and jostling. AJ kicked the solitary goal early on while Rhianna in particular, with support from Tessa, kept the pressure on St Aloysius after halftime. Eva proved reliable in goal but had reason to be grateful to Alice Cox for booting away a dangerous shot near the post. One of the St Aloysius players (seen below with Bella) pushed and shoved rather unnecessarily, tripping up Alice at one point.
Due to an epidemic of forgetfulness, neither soccer balls nor goalie's top arrived in time for this week's match. In fact, the game got underway with AJ's own (slightly soft) ball. Next, Julie (AJ's mum) had to make an emergency dash to the shop for oranges. Parents on the sidelines marvelled at the ever-improving player skills such as feinting and ball-handling. The kicking's already good so the Devils will be fabulous once they perfect running and passing. Go Devils!
