Cucuy Beat Aztecas

Aztecas FC - Cucuy FC 1:5 (0:2)

Since our division play-off was postponed, Gary had us play Aztecas from division 1. These guys gave us trouble in the past, and this game was hard-fought as well. Aztecas should have gone in the lead after about 15 minutes with a hard shot towards the left post. Cory in goal, using a combination of anticipation, experience, and Red Bull somehow got a finger on it and saved the tie. Scott had our first big chance, but the Azteca goalie wasn't too bad either. Shortly after we got a free-kick outside the box on the right side.  Karol chipped it in and Hinzki came in flying, heading the ball in for the 1:0. It happened so fast, Aztecas didn't knew what hit 'em, totally sweet goal. Both sides had chances, but Karol scored the 2:0 just at the half time whistle, long distance shot into the right lower corner.

Second half Aztecas came out strong, ready to turn the game around. But it was Pat, Karol, and Scotty who added icing to the cake, and Scott could have scored another but hit the crossbar. Aztecas finally got their goal of honor after a corner and scramble in the box.

Overall we played really well against a tough opponent. What I really liked was how well we moved the ball around on defense, giving the midfielders more time to set up the game. And by the way, we're now 8 goals away from the 500th Cucuy goal...

Goals: Karol (2), Scotty, Pat, Hinzki
MVP: Cary
