Cucuy Beats Internationals

International Old Boys - Cucuy FC 1:4 (0:1)

We last played these guys at Cinqo de Mayo where we lost against them in the final, so we knew these guys have some skill. This time we were missing Karol, Brent, and Kyle, so it was clear things wouldn't be easier. Luckily, Daniel helped out in goal, which freed up Schluni for field play. The first twenty minutes were pretty rough. The old boys had at least 4 great chances but could not score on either of them. Then Cary and Nate showed up and we were able to settle things much better in the back.  Soon after that Scotty and I subbed ourselves in, except that only Kyle came off, while Hintzki still had some business to take care of. So I watched Scotty break through midfield on the right and set up Hintzki with a perfect cross to the left, who put it away for the lead. After putting us ahead he was ready for a break. In any case, that was our first shot on goal, and a completely surprising lead.

Second half we started much better, and soon Javier scored our second. We played much better and now controlled the game, hardly letting anything through the defense. Cole could have scored the third but only hit the post from where it bounced to Jason, who's shot was also blocked. Then we got a penalty after a handball in the box. Patrick did not give the keeper a chance on this one.  Finally, Cary got a long ball on the right side, flew past two defenders and buried it in the back for the 4:0.  With only a few minutes left, the Old Boys scored their goal but that's all they were able to manage against us today.

Goals: Hintzki, Javier, Patrick, Cary
MVP: Schluni
