Champions Elect Gong Gungahlin

The Witches took to the field in their final home game of the season knowing they needed to win against Gungahlin but well aware that Gungahlin were desperate to win to keep their semi-final hopes alive. The first half by the Witches was arguably the best football they have played this season. The passing was precise and movement off the ball was brilliant. It took only 5 mins to open the scoring when Natina latched on to a through pass from Kristy and slotted home from a narrow angle after outpacing the Gungahlin defence. The free flowing football continued from the Witches and 11 mins later it was 2-0. In the best move of the game the ball was switched from left to right where Natina and Milly carved the Gungahlin defence to hsreds with slick passing before picking out Cassie in the centre. cassie didn't waste the opportunity, slamming her shot high into the net from 21m. The Witches were in full flight and when milly took a free kick from out on the right wing, no-one was surprised when Natina chested the ball down on the edge of the box and calmly slid it past the keeper. Not to be left behind, Milly completed Gungahlin's first half misery when she challenged the Gungahlin keeper for a cross, who spilled the ball. Milly was quickest to react and prodded home on the stroke of half time. Stung by the humiliating scoreline, Gungahlin responded by upping the physical aspect of their game and succeeded in containing the rampaging Witches during the second half. The Witches were never under any threat and totally dominated the tempo but were unable to finish off in the manner they had in the first. Full Time 4-0. The Witches now have only one game to go to wrap up their second successive Championship.
