11 Girls Gold Division:
Ela Red, Lake Zurich, Ill. 1, Minnesota Thunder Academy 03 Blue, New Hope, Minn. 0.

Early in the game possession for both teams was equal with only few chances created.  In approximately the 10th minute, following a shot on goal, Haley Brousseau of Ela began to push forward and create some close opportunities. MTA defender Amalia Villalobos stood strong with her back line and goalie to fend off the attacks by ELA.

At half time the score remained 0-0, however MTA came out ready to fight in the second half.  Jordyn Saddler created some chances near ELA’s goal, but was stopped by Ela’s goalkeeper Marrissa Cummings.

After a foul committed by MTA outside the box around the 60th minute,  ELA’s Alaina Malak struck a well hit free kick to beat the MTA keeper and score.

This would be the only goal of the game and ELA went on to win the championship in a 1-0 victory.

Way To go girls, we are proud of you.
