Brentford Women 7 Ebbsfleet United 0: Sangha's brace helps Bees to LSE Premier victory | OneFootball

Brentford Women dominated en route to a 7-0 London and South East Premier win over Ebbsfleet United on Sunday at Bedfont Sports Club.

Freya Worsley got the Bees off to a perfect start in the first half, before Asees Sangha secured a brace. Chelsie Berry, Marta Boabonay, Renai McCrea and Maï Louvrier found the back of the net in the second half to secure all three points.

The Bees wasted little time putting the visitors under pressure in their own half. Breaking down the right side Ilana Harris-Walters crossed to Worsley inside the box whose flying shot found its way to Berry, the winger’s shot fading wide of the right post.

Berry was at it again five minutes later, this time providing an assist. Breaking down the left side, Berry played a sublime cross to Worsley at the back post, the midfielder neatly tucking the ball into the bottom right corner to give the Bees an early lead.

As the clock ticked over 20 minutes Paula Holguin was fouled on the edge of the box. Alissa Down stepped up to take the free-kick and sent a low, powerful strike towards goal, but Ebbsfleet goalkeeper Grace O'Neil did well to secure the ball diving to her right.

Five minutes later Holguin was causing trouble again, this time playing a neat ball in the path of Sangha breaking through Ebbsfleet’s backline, the Brentford midfielder finishing well into the bottom right corner to double the hosts’ lead.

It wasn’t all one way traffic, however, as the visitors came close to halving the deficit on 31 minutes. Breaking down the right side Storm Arnold put a dangerous cross into the box, Lily Amos meeting it on the half-volley but putting her effort over the bar.

As half-time inched closer the Bees came close to adding a third goal. Finding space down the right side, Harris-Walters found Berry in the box who shot with her first touch, however the ball faded across goal and out of play.

The Bees got the third goal they were after as added time in the first half ticked over. A chaotic 10 seconds in the box with multiple attempted shots eventually saw Boabonay take possession, the attacker backheeling the ball to Sangho who powered it into the bottom right corner.

Out of the break Carly Williams’ side wasted little time in going back on the attack. Under 30 seconds into the re-start Berry found the back of the net, giving the Bees a four-goal advantage early in the second half.

After coming on at half-time Cloe O’Brien made her presence felt, her fresh legs providing a point of difference for the Bees. On 67 minutes she made a brilliant solo run down the right side before crossing the ball, Boabonay meeting the ball and firing it into the roof of the net for her first goal with the first team.

Maddie Phillips came close to scoring her first goal since returning from injury, however her effort from inside the box sailed over the bar.

As the game entered the final 10 minutes Phillips was in the action again, this time sending a dangerous cross into the box. Her ball was tipped by O'Neil towards the back post, McCrea there to send the ball into the back of the net.

The west Londoners didn’t have to wait long to get goal number seven as less than three minutes later Louvrier found space in the box and made no mistake, firing her shot into the top left corner.

An eighth was almost found through Lucy Potter in added time as she met the ball at the back post, however her effort was sent straight to O'Neil who secured the ball.

Brentford won turn their attention to the League Cup, as Newhaven travel to Bedfont next Sunday to face the Bees.

Williams: We had the control to see out the game

Brentford Women head coach Carly Williams was thrilled with her side's performance as they extended their time at the top of the LSE Premier table.

"Obviously it was an important win today, to get those goals on the board and different players scoring goals was fantastic to see as well," said Williams.

"Good performance by us, we had the control to see out the game too which is great.

"We spoke before the game about improving on last week, seeing out the game and relentlessly going after the game and I thought the girls did really well at doing that today."
