Game 3 Recap

Let me start again by saying...WOW!!! What a great fight to the end and a huge team effort in today's win.

Defense: with the exception of the two times their attack made it through, our defense was flawless. Taking good first touches when we had time, setting ourselves up for great passes, working together to overlap and clear the ball when necessary, the defense had a magical and calculated game today. There were certainly some memorable plays made by defenders that saved clear goal scoring opportunities.

Midfield: Most of our wins today came through our right wings and not all of those wins were necessarily the goals that were scored. Working in tandem with the defense, our wings were able to transition well from defense and drive our attack across the center line and into the attacking half. Our center mids did a great job of sending passes out to the wings and splitting the defensive line to our attackers. As with most games, today's battle was won in the midfield.

Attack: I'm including our wings in this category as it is evident from all 4 points that our wings played a great role in turning the game in our favor. Our strikers were always in the correct position for crosses, through passes and strikes on goal. Our wings drove the attack and capitalized on defensive errors and slower fullbacks for stupendous shots on goal.

Lastly, thanks again for all the ladies that played today, especially with just one sub. All were huffing and puffing in the end and all were overwhelmed with joy in the end. A true team victory!
