A huge 2–3 win for Bassett U14s today in a competitive top-of-the-table clash against Trowbridge.

Bassett started slowly and were not quite firing on all cylinders, with some sloppy passing and a few missed challenges making things difficult for themselves. After 15 minutes, Christina showed great footwork in the box and was brought down to win a penalty. She stepped up confidently and calmly converted to put Bassett 0–1 ahead.

Trowbridge continued to put Bassett under pressure and eventually found the equaliser to make it 1–1 going into half time.

After a strong team talk from Andy and the coaching team, Bassett came out with much more fight and determination in the second half.

Aamira had a fantastic game in goal before being replaced by Ella after 10 minutes. A massive well done to Aamira for stepping up today and showing what a brilliant team player she is.

Around 15 minutes into the second half, a little miscommunication at the back allowed Trowbridge to take the lead and make it 2–1. However, Bassett responded immediately. Christina produced another fantastic run straight through the middle and calmly finished to bring the score level at 2–2.

From there, Bassett really found their rhythm. They started playing some excellent football, getting to the ball first and putting in some important challenges. The pressure eventually paid off when Georgia B won the ball with a great challenge in midfield before sending a looping ball over the top to Maddie, who kept her composure and calmly slotted it away to make it 2–3.

The final whistle brought a fantastic comeback victory and three very important points for Bassett.

Player of the Match: Chloe

Chloe was outstanding today and thoroughly deserved the Player of the Match award. Starting in midfield before dropping into defence, she put in some huge challenges and showed incredible energy throughout the game.

She was absolutely solid at the back and made it extremely difficult for anyone to get past her. A fantastic all-round performance from Chloe.

A brilliant comeback from Bassett in a really competitive game, and a massive three points to take home.

Next up is a big cup game against Derry Hill.
