Green Hawks Down Celts

A Madison team shorn of its main strike force were put to the sword by a very effective Guilford Hawks team who scored at will in the first half. No Jorge or Carlos meant Madison had a very defensive set up at the beginning of the game. However, the hesitation to attack Guilford or compete for the ball proved to be a fatal error as the Hawks slammed in 6 goals in the first half with only one in reply from the Celts. Almost every attack and shot on goal by the Hawks seemed to find its way to the back of the net. Unerring accuracy or hapless defending? Who knows, but the end result was the same with abject humiliation on the line as Madison took to the field for the second half. That fear drove Madison to play so much better in the next 30 minutes with 3 great goals closing Guilfords lead to 6-4. Tom A was breaking up most of their attacks and also was having some great shots on goal. Alas, the Celts could not close the gap any further and Guilford wrapped up the game with another goal to finish deserved 7-4 winners.

That ended the first session of indoor. The next one start this Thursday. I will post time and team as soon as i find out!

  2. As of Thursday night it the schedule was not available. We asked the girls at the front desk when we paid the fee for the session. If we don't hear by Tuesday, the sad to call the sportsplex. Anyway, looking forward to thursday's match.

    Johnaldo, thought we would have heard from Bluemoon this weekend??

  5. Roniildo....when you hear when the game is just blog it.... no idea if Blue moon guy is still reading...thought he would at least come on and gloat....although maybe he/she is embarrased about the unbelievably biased refereeing that helped them win?

  6. I like the comments about the last game remind me back to my country we did this but immediately after the game with some drinks to chill or cheers. For those that didn't show up I tell you that night the team (hawks)that I play for now was very lucky .And we have a couple shoots in the post too plus no subs just only one for 20 minutes until he was out for a pull muscle.I'll see guys with better luck next time.

  7. I don't need to gloat. Celtic suck and now everyone knows it and your version of Celtic are not much better by the look of it!
    Nice to know I am a voice of reason on this blog though. Two in a row, is so easy.

  9. Blue Moon....welcome back....

    'voice of reason' seems a bit inflated though....how about 'voice of insanity'?

  10. Well, Football is more then just luck.
    (SORRY I make a correction then)
    I hope we have more , spirits, determination skills, sacrifice and *BALLS* next time. And SOME drinks.
