She also leads the team with 11 match points. Their goalkeeper, leading from the front, has four clean sheets. Seems ridiculous but it's true. Their goalkeeper, Keisham Melody is in the running for the Golden Glove for her outstanding goalkeeping in the previous. Some of her saves are truly eye catching and amazing.
