Jolly Rogers FU - Cucuy FC 0:4 (0:3)
Although we had no subs and even with Jesse in goal, we never were at a chance of losing this game. We were dominating from the first minute but it took a bunch of good chances until Andrew hit for the 1:0 after a great cross from Patrick. After a huge defensive mistake, I took up the chance for the 2:0, and Andrew scored again with the half time whistle from what appeared to be offsides.
In second half we started to shoot a bit more from a distance and came close to the 4:0 but could not quite put it away. With few minutes left, I set up Andrew after a great opening pass from Hintz across the midfield, and Andrew finally got the hattrick.
Goals: Andrew (3), Eddy
MVP: Andrew
Best of Show: Jesse

Cucuy Screwed by the Ref Big Time
Saturday United - Cucuy FC 2:1 (2:1)
With a firm language barrier in place we've been unlucky in the past dealing with refs that don't speak any English. This time we really got screwed. We had an open game until about 60 minutes into the game, when Karol fouled a player in mid-field that deserved a yellow. To everybody's surprise he did not get one but two yellows and was sent off, because the ref thought Karol had seen a yellow in the first half, which he had not. When Chris tried to explain that "ocho" is not "nueve" he was sent off with a straight red. These seriously crappy ref decisions can really take the fun out of it. Nevertheless, we managed to keep it at 2:1 for the rest of the game, which was pretty impressive.
Maybe it's time for a referee evaluation after each game.
Goal: Chris
MVP: Kyle

Cucuy Rolls Over Manchester United
Manchester United - Cucuy FC 0:9 (0:7)
If Manchester United had a full squad it may have been an interesting game. They did not, and the game was decided after 15 minutes. Goal of the day could have gone to Dave Hintz who had a beautiful diving header that just missed the goal. Goal of the day does go to Jason, who received a pass on the left side, outside of the box, took aim, and ripped it into the right upper ninety. Bitteschoen!
Goals: Ben (5), Patrick, Karol, Jason, Chris
MVP: Ben
