Bognor girls on winning streak as they repel the Raiders

Bognor’s back three of Esmae Burgess, Tia Hart and Maddie Rowe were outstanding and great work by Chelsy Osborne and Nikola Wydra in midfield created a chance for Amelia Howard but the keeper was equal to it.

Raiders were denied by an outstanding save by Cassidy O’Flanagan. A shot by Osborne on 29 minutes beat the keeper and rebounded off the post and Howard followed up to fire home.

Bognor increased their lead on 33 minutes when a short throw-in by Jasmine Shipsides to Osborne ended with a return pass and Shipsides sent a wonderful strike over the keeper.

In the second half Isabell Mai Childs was a constant threat out wide for Bognor.

Rustington’s chances were snuffed out by O’Flanagan.

Karma Harris, Freya Moores and Abbie Clear came on and helped Bognor hold on for the win.
