The match was over as a contest by the 8th minute following a header from Alanza Solaun and a direct free-kick from Saga Isgren. Isgren added another by the same method after 24 and completed her hattrick from the penalty spot on the stroke of half-time, an effort that made it five as Isgren’s second and third goals had sandwiched that of Caroline Hinton.
Harmony Lister made it six minutes into the second half at which point manager Jdsx was seen waving his team into an energy conserving set-up. Despite this they could have had one more, Sharyn Bullock turning home late on only to be denied by a whistle.
Would LuCa FC offer more of a challenge on Matchday 9? Erm, no. In fact arguably less so as they are drifting managerless following the previous guy walking away.
Once again it was five by the interval, with a hattrick for the dead-ball specialist as the main contribution. The specialist on this day was Sandra Brundin, and she netted a direct free-kick on 6 minutes, a penalty after 20 and then for variety a goal from open play on 43. Isgren may have been denied the set-piece goals, but her name was also on the scoresheet after she blasted in from range on 12 minutes, the other opening half strike arriving in similar fashion from Tülin Besen on 25.
Once again there was just a single strike after the break, and once again it was Lister who provided it as she headed home midway through the second-half.
Matchday 10 brought Fantasy Factory to Erbil Arena, and they did make it slightly tougher. But only slightly.
Free-kick duties were still with Brundin (Isgren was left out of the entire squad), and she opened the scoring in trademark style on 14 minutes. A second didn’t arrive until the second-half was over ten minutes old, Mellissa James providing it from a corner. And we were into the last ten before two long-rangers from Hinton and Brundin made the final score match better with the chances created.
The key result in Division 6:4 in this period wasn’t an Erbil one but rather the surprise defeat suffered by second-place Djuped BK on Matchday 8. That now leaves them six points adrift of Erbil’s still 100% record, and with a much inferior goal difference. Two more wins and Erbil are going up...
