We started off brightly with good work from Jemma and Clara who plays in Leanne for the first effort that goes wide. From the goal kick Clara intercepts and puts the ball wide. Sophie defended well and plays a ball down the wing to Clara who crosses for Leanne who shoots wide. Nicole bursts through on goal with a stinging shot and keeper makes a great save. Nicole retrieves the ball again and passes to Clara who passes the ball into the net for the first goal of the season. Reading 1-0.
Livvy has a cracking effort from outside the box that goes just wide. Nicole wins the ball back from the Bracknell defence and plays in Clara again who scores to make it Reading 2-0.
On the attack again and Clara passes to Nicole who shoots straight at the keeper. Livvy was on the left wing and cuts inside and shoots and the keeper makes another save. Morgan who has been quite so far made a save from a corner. Sophie clears a goalmouth scramble and on the attack Clara forces another save from their keeper after some good link up play from Nicole and Leanne. Livvy passes to Clara who crosses to Nicole who steadied herself and slots the ball into the net. Reading 3-0.
Good work by Sophie and Jae. Great through ball from Eloise to play in Nicole and was swiftly tackled by the defender. Eloise shoots wide of the post and Nicole repeats the same shortly after. Bracknell struggling to venture out of their own half. Eloise reads the goal kick and rifles a shot to increase the lead. Reading 4-0.
Livvy plays a great ball into Eloise who hits the upright. Eloise wins corner and Nicole picks out Clara who volleys into the net to make it Reading 5-0. Great hat trick.
On the attack again Jemma and Clara work well together and feed Nicole in again to score Reading 6-0.
Half time Reading 6-0.
With no substitutes one or two changes were made to give players a breather. Sophie plays long ball to Livvy who shoots to make it Reading 7-0.
Livvy wins the ball and plays in Nicole who scores to make it Reading 8-0. Good hat trick.
Morgan involved in a Bracknell chance that’s sees the ball almost go over the line. Referee decides it did not and play continues. The link up play in midfield continues with Leanne supporting Livvy whose shot is saved. A lovely through ball from Nicole gives Leanne the opportunity to score her first goal Reading 9-0.
Jae runs the length of the pitch to have her shot saved. Eloise wins a corner and Nicole wins the ball and shoots to score make it a comfortable victory. Reading 10-0

Player of the match today goes to the captain Eloise for her team contribution. Good encouragement throughout the game. Played well in defence with a solid performance and in midfield was skilful on the ball. Scored a goal and hit the post to give us a well deserved first 3 points of the season.
