RSC Fights to the end!!

The game was hard fought tooth and nail from start to finish and although we ended up on the wrong side of the score sheet. We can take home that we played with heart the whole game. Basically, to sum up the game we played well enough to win but we couldn't take advantage of the opportunities we had.

The first half was once again a good show by us and we played quite effectively on both sides of the ball. The defense was hard fought with Peter, Carlos, Frankie, Bobby, Mario and Joe playing an aggressive style defense which consistently stopped the opposing teams attacks. On the offensive side we had many opportunities to try and create some scoring opportunities but we just came short when it came to shots on goal!

Half time score 0-0

Second half we still were in the game but the opposing team got a bit more crafty, capitalized on our mistakes and were able to score a couple of early goals. We played tight until Jeff had a corner kick which Atilla was able to put enough on it to head it into the goal! We nearly had another goal as Mike took the ball down the right side of the field, maneuvered past a couple of defenders and laid a strike right past the goal. It looked in but the angle was a bit to much and the ball zoomed by the left goal post. The game still was pretty heated all the way until the end but we were just not able to tie the game up.

Final score 2-1 loss

* on a journalistic note. Last weeks game was against the Tigres although the match on SBASL stated Guadalajara. In the future I will be more careful with my sources..
