A re-match of our first-ever game (which we won 2-1). The start of the game was unbelieveably cool. We passed wherever we wanted and had the Tribe trapped in their own half for about 10 minutes. Josh was standing all by himself in front of the net and got a cross from Craig or Justin — and put in a curving high shot. That was it for the rest of the half, though we should have maximized our chances while the hunting was good. The opponents woke up and we couldn't do any sustained pressure. They started to out-pass us and in the second half they had the edge in pressure. Kyle had to make a few good saves on hard kicks. Finally, they got a goal off a free kick, with about 5-10 minutes to go. The kicker smoked the ball through my five-hole and the ensuing loose ball wasn't cleared. In it went. 1-1 final. Dang! First-timer Mike Pascucci worked hard and made some good controlled plays in the midfield. It may be a while before we see him again, due to work and hockey. "Hanway" joins us next week, though.
