Zetland were looking determined to make their second game of the night a win, and the game got off to a cracking pace as they tore into the Deltmavine half.
The Delts coped well with the initial attack, despite only having five players, and were quickly on the counter.
Nicola Blance hammered the ball out of danger into the capable hands of Andrew Aitken, who slotted it home to give the Delts an early lead. Zetland came back strong, but despite numerous shots and short corners they were unable to make it past Megan Nicholson in goal.
Deltmavine’s attacking force of Lee Balfour, Andrew Aitken and Ross MacDougall continuously linked well, and three more sweet shots from Aitken made the score 4-0 to the Delts at half time.
The second half began with MacDougall quickly lengthening Deltmavine’s lead, as he struck it home to make it 5-0.
Blance made a few attempts to score, but couldn’t quite seem to find the goal. However Aitken was on fine shooting form and hit the back of the net for his fifth of the night.
Zetland made some excellent attempts to get a goal of their own with great shots coming from Indyia Bradley and Adam Johnson, but Nicholson was determined to keep a clean sheet and gave nothing away. Macdougall managed to capitalise once more just before the final whistle to end the game 7-0.
