Ashton’s double helps Clough U14 Girls conquer Hebden Bridge
Howden Clough Under-14 Girls turned the tables on Hebden Bridge, who have beaten them for the last two seasons, with an emphatic 4-2 win.
Playing uphill and into a fierce wind, Ellie Woods had little to do thanks to great Clough defending. Isabel Maguire and Lauren Atkinson played well, Rachel Day was solid in midfield and Charlie Cassidy marked Hebden’s star player out of the game.
Clough led 1-0 thanks to Charlotte Ashton and just after the break she added a fine second. Megan Ryan and Beth Davies won plenty of ball in midfield and pushed on well. Gabby Johnson showed strength and passion up front.
Davies coolly finished before Isobel Hilton, who was solid in the tackle, capped a girl-of-the-game display with a fine shot into the top corner.
