What a game, what a game. The boys made for a tremendous comeback last night to salvage a 1-1 tie in the last 2 minutes of play. We played a mighty tough team "The Tigers" and some mighty tough players. We had two injuries, Patrick B., who took a shot to the ribs and Vinson received a ball to the face late in the game. Fortunately, neither injury was too traumatic. I think both players will have a full recovery before next week's match. We were even able to turn the last injury and a very fortunate decision by the referee giving us a free kick, which enabled Josh to score a beautiful goal in the lower 90 that allowed us to maintain our undefeated season.
The Augusta Fire is playing much tougher and with much more skill and control than they have all season. Their acceptance to take direction and to follow that direction has been much improved. Everyone's foot work and vision for the ball, is getting better and better. Great work last night guys! This next week we will work a bit more on passing and leading your teammate with the ball. Rest up, you certainly deserved it, but don't get too complacent, we still half half the season left.
Next practice is Thursday night, 6pm at the baseball field by Warren Road school. See you then.
