Bermuda international Aaliyah Nolan delivered a masterclass in clinical finishing, firing a stunning hat-trick to lead Barnsley Women past Kidderminster Harriers in the FA Women’s National League Division One Midlands.
Nolan and compatriot Trinae Edwards lined up at the Steel City Stadium, where Nolan wasted little time opening the scoring with a crisp strike in the seventh minute.
After Harriers levelled before the interval, Barnsley struck immediately after the restart. Just seconds into the second half, Amber Sewell picked out Emmie King, whose stinging drive was parried into the path of Nolan to tap home for 2-1.
The Bermudian forward completed her treble in style in the 74th minute, latching onto a searching long ball before driving forward and burying a lethal left-footed finish.
