McNamara scores twice, McKenna adds screamer in grand final
Two goals in three minutes from Matildas forward Holly McNamara and a stunning strike by Leticia McKenna have won Melbourne City a record-equalling fifth A-League Women championship title, defeating Wellington Phoenix 3-1 in Melbourne on Saturday afternoon.
McNamara, fresh off her golden boot win for most goals scored in the regular season, sprung to life late in the first half. A sensational spin-and-strike from outside the box in the 41st minute opened the scoring before McNamara went scything through Wellington defenders to spear her second into the bottom corner two minutes later.
