Second Half Seals the Deal

Cucuy FC - Azteca FC 9:0 (1:0)

You're right, 9:0! So how did that happen? First half the Aztecas did a fairly well job keeping us away from their goal. It took us about 20 minutes until CNate gave off the first warning shot that was on goal. Out of all the great chances we had the goal came really from a non-chance. Azteca's sweeper blocked a ball that was rolling towards the keeper, hoping the keeper would come out and pick it up. Javier chased him down and somehow, between keeper and sweeper, got the ball loose and towards the middle, where Pat picked up the pieces. Not a bad move. Azteca pretty much relied on counter attacks but was shut down by our defense. Both Nick and CNate on the wings had a great game, not just defending but opening up the game.

I had a feeling we would be scoring again second half, maybe not eight times though. There were several awesome goals, for example Karol's free-kick that went straight in the upper ninety. Or Schluni's goal: one shot, one goal, not bad! Jason also scored, which is now his third goal in three games - what's going on here? At some point, Azteca lost their sweeper to a red card, and after that they pretty much gave up.

Goals: Pat, Karol, Cole, Schluni, Hintzki, Eddy, Javier (2), Huczek
