Castlemaine Goldfields Football Club Senior Men’s Green team had their first win of the season against Golden City in round seven of the Bendigo Amateur Soccer League last weekend.
It was a hard fought game, very tight first half with Castlemaine scoring at the end of the half via Floyd Wesley (42 mins).
The second half saw the game become more open and free flowing. An early own goal (47 mins) helped the boys style into the game and apply further pressure. A goal off the boot of Rory McLeod on 90 minutes closed out a great first win for the Mainers’ 3-0.
The Senior Men’s Gold team had to settle for a draw against Deniliquin 1-1. Gold scored early through Zander Cotterell, but Deni nabbed one back in the dying minutes of the match to even the score.
This Sunday Green host Deniliquin at Chewton at 1pm and Gold hit the road to tackle the Border Raiders.
The Castlemaine Women’s 1 side had a 1-0 win over Tatura and the Women’s 2 side absolutely dominated with a crushing 12-0 victory over La Trobe. This weekend the Women 1 have the bye and Women 2 host Golden City at Chewton on Sunday from 11am.
