Hi everyone...having fun with Donald and Mickey and it sounds like the game was fun too. My able assistant editor, Jody has supplied this weeks match report below. See you soon!We tied New Fairfield yesterday 1-1....Jorge scored in the first half and they came back and headed one in off a corner in the second....and then ramped up the pressure on us. To be fair though, we should've scored about 3 or 4 more goals...wide open in front of the net with only the goalie (or in one case, a wide open net that Carlos went wide on).....we had at least 3 golden opportunities from close range and went high every time. Conditions were sloppy as it had rained heavily through the night, but the rain ceased before the game...we played at the Madison High School practice field...not bad.....never would've played on our usual home field.Next week Woodbridge....away. Hope to see you all then!

ReplyDeletesecond in the poll....at least Behrooz was there
And how about John??? Jody, I'll let you answer this one!!
ReplyDeleteso what was the defensive line up for the game? only one goal lost so
ReplyDeleteit must have worked ok.....
At this point, John is probably wearing wings and a tutu and is being
ReplyDeletechased around the park by Goofy and company........yeah, yeah, we missed
him too....
that's nothing new for john...
ReplyDelete......when you wish upon a star..... i know you all want me
ReplyDeleteback.....but Donald Duck has my attention at the moment
Ron "the Toe" was the man of the match...chased down and harrassed their
ReplyDeletebest player for most of the game.......
Tom, Tom, Behrooz, Rob H, Ron B (who was my MVP....harassed the big English center forward the whole game who was unable to score!!!). Jim also had a number of great saves.....
ReplyDeleteSolid D. from the team overall (Ron B. specially), that is until we screwed up the rotation!! I end up playing D.??????? I believed Jorge and Jerry as well!! we (I) look totally disorganized!!
ReplyDeleteIf you guys haven't notice yet?!?!?!? when there is lost of harmony/teamspirit among us, players don't want to play at their positions anymore accusing each other of something (most of the time mistakes that they have done also during the game) and we start losing our rotations and ultimately our grip on the game!!! Nothing new, but why it happens everytime???? Just an observation!
We have a good team and we could be better if only.................
I think we played strongly in 1st half and ran alot, as we knew they were a good team who could run alot and had good ball control and passing.
ReplyDeleteI think we tired alot in 2nd half (myself in particular!).
We had basically 1 offensive sub, 1 midfield sub, 1 defender sub.
So around 70 minutes we had to put in whoever was freshest at the place we needed the most help. Not the best solution but we needed fresh bodies and people got tired at the same time.
We may have substituted more effectively in the 1st half. What do you think?
