Report By El Gato! Pic By Tano!
Well the fellow who was supposed to write the match report never showed up....
So you are stuck with yours truly....
Another loss for Madison Celtic to add to their almost perfect indoor session. I can not say it was lack of players. We had 11 "skilled" players; The incredible hulk was back between the sticks, LaBoca, kris, 50/50 Tom A., Dave S., Halil, Ruggero, Tano and El Gato. We also had the return of our guest players Altigan and his cousin Zez.
We had a great start with nice form and a quick goal in the back of the net by Zez. So El Gato started to do what he knows best, watching the game on the other field. By the time I turned around we were trailing 5-1. Oops here we go again, its almost half time and we are too deep in the hole to be able to pull it off. Slow moves and too many unmarked men was again the story of our game. Second half started much better. Three beautiful goals by Dave S. put us back in the game. At 5-4 as we were looking for the equalizer, Branford "yellow shirts" took advantage of our sloppy defensive line up and added another goal to their 5 unanswered first half goals. However, Halil with some great moves was able to get a quick goal pass their goalie. Now at 6-5 we tried one more time for the equalizer but here we go again....... 7-5 loss is what we can add to our broken record.
Next game is this Thursday at 7pm against Guilford Black Eagles!! This is the last game of this session
I'm pleased to see that we're "saving" almost all of our wins for the outdoor season!

I try to be there....we have bunch of problems as a team:
ReplyDelete1.Lack of fitness - causing not to move well or not move into space to receive a pass, and not quick enough to release the ball.
2.Some of us hold on to the ball too long instead of quick passes moving forward...we end up losing the ball too many times and giving the other team advantage. Other teams are doing a much better job of moving back and forth as a team and their passwork is much better than...we suck in this area big time.
3.Not protecting the ball well or know how to protect the ball before losing it.
4.Don't markup man to man regardless of what position we play or too slow to react specially on corner kicks, midfield area and forward players don't come back to help the mid field most of the times. Other teams doing a much better job in this area.
5.I think we need to have set positions of players who can perform better in certain positions and not just to jump in to play in any position that they are not used to or are uncomfortable and uneasy.
Hope we can try to do better this week and need to work hard against the Guilford Black Eagle team....and I know we can do it and we need a winning attidude
tpink.... yes big win for Celtic! great atmosphere at the game.... the place was bouncing!
