LITTLE Oakley's under-12 girls produced a stunning performance to defeat Thurrock Dynamos 3-2 and lift the President’s Cup, in Basildon.
Hannah Powell opened the scoring after a long run upfield and Rosie Mortimer made it 2-0.
Thurrock pulled one back early in the second half, but Tom Fielding scored her debut goal from the halfway line - surely the team's goal of the season - to make it 3-1.
Despite Lauren Semple making a great clearance, Thurrock scored again to set up a tense finale.
However, Oakley held on to end their season on a real high.
