MCFC W35A(WAAB) vs LINDFIELD AT PARKLANDS
The afternoon thunderstorm hits Parklands and disrupts the first half in which Mount Colah takes the lead two NIL.
The second half continues with it's fast pace and the storm clouds clear and the afternoon sun starts to peek through. Mount Colah scores another goal. Both sides miss their shots which makes the game exciting to watch and the scores could have been a lot higher for both sides. The games ends Mount Colah 3 Lindfield 0

MCFC W35B vs NORTH SYDNEY UNITED AT PARKLANDS
I dropped in to cover the game early in the second half. I had a chat with coach Steve Ireland. It wasn't looking that good. North Sydney was dominating the game and leading two NIL and it was looking like they would score a few more goals before the game finished.
As the storm clouds started to build for the impending afternoon thunderstorm, so did the fire in the ladies to score. Like the building storm clouds the ladies built up attack after attack until after a tussle in the 6 yard box in front of the North Sydney goal Mount Colah scores! Not too much later the ladies get a penalty in the box and an opportunity to equalise. It was tense. The ball was struck well and hard, but the North Sydney goalie made a brilliant save and pushes the ball forward. Another chance! The ball is cleared. No goal 😞. Time is running out. Mount Colah attacks and attacks, but no luck. One last chance. Mount Colah is back in the North Sydney box and scores! North Sydney fights back and gets a corner. Would fate be cruel and after a terrific fightback the ladies get their hard fought draw taken away? No! The game ends Mount Colah 2 North Sydney United 2. Well done ladies! 😀❤️⚽️
