Motherwell got their 2022/23 season underway on Sunday when they defeated Dundee United 1-0 in a friendly match at the GA Arena in Dundee.
A first-half goal from London Pollard was enough for the women of steel to get their pre-season preparations off to the perfect start.
Motherwell would see plenty of the ball in the early stages of the game and they would get their reward on the half hour mark.
A nicely worked ball in the midfield eventually found it’s way out to the right hand side where Lauren Doran-Barr controlled, and took to the byline. She crossed the ball across goal where Pollard was waiting to tap into the net.
Chances were limited for the rest of the first half.
In the second period, summer signing Emily Mutch was called into action. She was forced to make an excellent stop on the hour mark to prevent Dundee United from finding an equaliser.
Motherwell would go on to look for a second and double their advantage before the end of the match.
In the latter stages of the match, a Katie Rice corner created havoc in the United penalty area however nobody was their to capitalise and the game would finish 1-0 to the ‘Well.
Motherwell now welcome St Johnstone in their next friendly match on July 10.
