Marty Blows SA United Out of the Water

Saturday United - Cucuy FC 0:2 (0:0)

SU started short but we failed to take advantage. In the middle of the first half they had a full squad and the game was very even, chances on both sides, but no scores.

Second half this continued, and Kyle had one or two good saves to keep us from falling behind. SU had a great chance, a striker running straight on Kyle but shanking it over the goal. We also had a good chance with a shot on goal from short distance, but the keeper saved it with his foot, ball rolling out of the box, straight towards Marty. He had no second thoughts and whammed it out of maybe 25 yards with his left into the right upper ninety. The keeper had enough time to react but it was just too good of a shot. What a goal! And the first one for Cucuy! A few minutes later, SU should have tied the game with a corner that somehow wiggled through 4 or 5 players and ended up at the far post, where the SU player just needed to push it over the line, and did so but outside our goal. Some time later, Andrew sealed the win with a great goal after a perfect pass from Scotty. Andrew crossed over from right to left and just gave it one touch to push the ball past the keeper. Not sure but with this win we actually might make the playoffs.

Goals: Marty, Andrew
MVP: Marty
