Game 10 Recap

Game 10: Boones 3 - Inferno Red 1

Out - Mucio, Chad, Brady, and Brett

Joel is on fire (see the neat picture of Joel above). Joel had two goals. He got things started when he received an excellent through pass and ran past the defenders. He drove the shot far post for our first goal. Later in the second half, Iceman punted the ball past midfield. Dave was there to win the ball, one touch the ball forward, run past the defenders, and then finish with an excellent shot. We had a nice lead at half.

Inferno scored quickly after the second half started. They beat a few of our defenders and got a crossing shot off that rolled out of Ice's hands and on to the foot of another Inferno player that kicked in the deflection.

But thanks to Tutt, others, and Joel we were able to get a third goal late in the second half to secure the win. Joel got the goal, Tutt was blamed for a high kick, and other stuff was going on too??? Basically we got the goal, won the game, and now we are off to the playoffs.

Notes:

The ref was bad.

There was a lot of whining, complaining, and arguing going on in that game. Actually pretty typical this season.

All of the Inferno players and the ref really dislike Preston. On the contrary, I think Preston is kick ace!

Claire is the best fan ever! She offered me a pretty flower to put in my hair when I was taking a breather. She cheers for Stu Dawg like no other.

Eric must have dribbled around 4 or 5 Inferno players, then barely missed his shot. I think he has done this in every game he has played with us.

We had two standing bicycle kicks in the game (by Mickey or Nutz and Stu Dawg I think). Both were effective. Both were show-boating. Nice.

Chuck had a goal last week. In a previous blog post I said I thought it was Tutt that got that goal. Sorry Chuck, you are way better at soccer than Tutt and we still lost that game.

Joel is on fire.

Playoffs.
