Tournament Game #1
Hornets 3, Falcons (div5)
Goal scorers: Andrew (1 and 2), Kashif (1).
Conditions: scorcher of a day, high was 32,
with humidex it was bordering 40 out there!
Shawn:
They moved the ball up very well, it was only
thanks to some great defence and goalkeeping
that we were able to hold them off. Our first
goal to tie it up was from a penalty shot
by Andrew, from there we pulled ahead 3-1.
The last goal looked like a gimme as we
walked in 2 on 0. Way to go guys! I think this
proves that we can play with teams a
division or two higher (or even three! ;).
Phil L:
Great start to our Tournament play for the year.
Very first penalty kick on the year, and we
scored! All of our players kept their cool
during the game unlike the opposition who really
let the ref have it. It's unfortunate, a ref is
like everybody else, he gets yelled at, he'll get
mad. That's why it's really important to just
play the game and not even talk to the ref, which
is exactly what our guys did. Great job! Now
that we know we can compete with Division 5 teams
who knows how far we can go?
