Eva Frazzoni grasped her opportunity with both hands after being granted her first start for Hashtag United Women in their 4-1 win away to London Seaward in the FA Women’s National League Division 1 South East on Thursday.

The Bermuda captain took only eight minutes to open her goal account for her new club and break the deadlock at Wadham Lodge when she drilled Milika Apindia Gille’s cutback into the roof of the net.

“Glad to get my first start and of course get on the scoresheet and help my team,” Frazzoni told The Royal Gazette.

“I am still trying to find my way in the team, as I know I have much more to give.”

The former Somerset captain also had an assist, picking up a loose ball and putting Emma Samways through to score the visitors’ second in the 53rd minute.

The home side pulled one back five minutes later to cut the deficit in half.

However, Hashtag hit back twice farther down the stretch to secure three vital points on the road.

Captain Grace Gillard restored the visiting side’s two-goal advantage in the 73rd minute when she converted from the penalty spot after Gille was brought down.

Samways then put the match beyond Seaward when she grabbed a second from a Gille rebound in second-half stoppage time.

Frazzoni joined Hashtag last month after agreeing to the terms of an undisclosed deal and made her debut in a goalless draw away to AFC Wimbledon in a league clash at Carshalton Athletic on August 21.

“I am happy to finally sign with a great team with a great platform,” she said. “I could not have asked for a more welcoming team. In the last year, I did not sign to anyone because of a few setbacks. It was tough mentally but my support system kept be going. Most importantly I focused on completing my master’s [degree].

“Now that I am settled in the UK, I made a bigger push to get back to a club.

“I am happy where I am and hope we can secure promotion. We are striving for promotion and every win matters.”

Frazzoni reckons the best is yet to come her and her fellow team-mates.

“We as a team have so much more to show,” she added. “Happy to be a part of this team and buzzing to keep going.”
