Royal Wootton Bassett Town Under 14s took on Ferndale Rodbourne on a chilly Saturday morning, where they triumphed in a 3-1 win at home.
Bassett got off to a strong start but unfortunately Ferndale took the lead early on.
However, the girls weren't deterred and pushed for an equaliser.
Sienna Matthews eventually found the back of the net, slotting the ball home at the end of Alisa Allan's cross to put Bassett back in the game.
The goal gave the Blues a boost -and they dominated in possession and created wave after wave of attack.
Sienna sent a dangerous ball into the box that passed unsuspecting Ferndale defenders to find Ava Hall at the back post, whose strike sent Bassett into the lead.
The girls went into the break 2-1 up, but the game was tight with the possibility that anything could happen in the next 35 minutes.
The Bluez carried over the same energy into the second half and were looking comfortable on the ball. The girls were linking up well and having plenty of shots on goal.
Their hard work paid off when Mia Hughes made a strong run down the middle of the park and finished neatly in the top corner to seal the home side's win.
The game finished 3-1 and things were looking good for the Blues after a great team performance, with everyone playing their part in the win that keeps them top of the table.
Supporters' Player of the Match went to Ava for her hard work down the left wing, and Coaches' Player went to Mia for her strength in midfield.
