Eloise Hall enjoyed a goalscoring return to our Women’s Under-21s side on Wednesday afternoon, but it came as a mere consolation for us as Liverpool pulled away with a 5-1 victory in the penultimate game of Professional Game Academy League campaign.
The young forward, who has enjoyed a successful spell on a dual registration with AFC Bournemouth having netted six goals in 12 games, halved the deficit in the first half with a composed finish after Olivia Maddocks and Neve McDonald had fired the away side into a two-goal lead within the first 15 minutes at Hotspur Way.
However, McDonald restored their two-goal advantage just before the half-hour mark before they further extended their lead in the second half - McDonald sealing her hat-trick before Maddy Duffy wrapped up the victory for the Reds in our final home game of the season.
Alongside Eloise returning to the starting XI, Faye Fields-Davies made her first start of the campaign while we were also able to call upon midfielder Rania Oukriss, who was named amongst the substitutes following a weeks training camp with Morocco Under-17s.
