Amy Woodruff secured herself a brace on opening day against Thornaby Women, helping Leeds United Women to an emphatic 7-0 win in the FA WNL Division One North.
Woodruff opened the scoring in the first half as she finished off a really neat team move starting from Darcie Greene at left back, before adding the seventh in stoppage time to cap off the victory.
Speaking after the final whistle, our number 14 said: "I think we grew into the game definitely. I think the first 10 or 15 minutes showed quite a few nerves, but it's opening day of the season.
"We know how long the season is, we stuck to the task and we got rewarded by the girls today, and it's a great start to the season.
"I think preseason builds a lot to this first game, no matter who your opponent is. It's important that we've worked well in pre-season, which we have done. Everything's been so positive in camp and we were just so ready to get going today."
