XLR8 Beats Cucuy, Finally

XLR8 - Cucuy FC 3:0 (2:0)

How did we do? According to Schluni: "Less than great. While we played them well and were clearly the more talented team, being short bodies hurt us. We ended up with one sub, CNate, who had a great game. They scored first pretty early, a nice series of 1-touch passing through our
box. A little while later Brent got sucked out of the box on a long throw and someone lost their mark, leading to a header that hit the post a snuck in. Despite a few chances, it was 2-0 at half.

We came out strong in the second and had a lot of opportunities, they had one counter that ended in a mad scramble and the ball in our net. Then we got tired. We had some more chances, they were able to put pressure on us with their 8 subs. One of their guys should have been ejected he was just there to hurt people. He hurt Okan's ankle on a really late tackle, hurt my shoulder on a challenge from behind, and came in REALLY late on Kyle. Overall, we fought hard and looked relatively good, but just couldn't mount much offense and got worn down."
