From the opening whistle, Avondale imposed their authority, weaving intricate patterns across the park and suffocating Monash with relentless pressure.
It took just 21 minutes for the scoreboard to ignite as Addison Steiner’s half-volley rifled into the back of the net.
Moments later, Elise Kellond-Knight doubled the advantage with an effortless side-footed finish that oozed elegance, before Steiner returned to add her second in quick succession.
The onslaught continued with Kurea Okino showcasing her sharp instincts, drifting between defenders to add four sublime goals to her growing season tally. Her movement, timing and composure in front of goal were simply a class above.
Not to be outdone, Larissa Walsh brought her own magic, racing past her marker to slot home just before halftime.
But the spectacle didn’t end there. Saphri Lines delivered a moment for the highlight reels, unleashing a thundering strike from outside the area that swerved into the side netting.
Meanwhile, Saki Nishihara rose majestically at the back post to nod home a Kellond-Knight corner.
Steiner would later complete her quadruple haul with a late finish, capping off a day where Avondale were simply unstoppable. Their movement, creativity and hunger for goals left supporters wowed.
This emphatic result sees Avondale FC sitting top of the table with 18 points and a 10 goal better goal difference than rivals Keilor Park SC.
