Before the match, Phoebie Poole was a beacon of certainty. She would find the back of the net.
It was not an outrageous or even bold claim from the 18-year-old Cardiff City starlet. She had scored nine goals in the league heading into Sunday’s South Wales derby. It had been her brace which inflicted a first and only league defeat this season on defending champions Swansea City.
Phoebie Poole scores goals. And Cardiff City have been winning games. The facts held an air of inevitability about them on Sunday afternoon.
