Crusaders 0 vs Medford Arsenal 7 (at RSA)
Captain: William
It was a beautiful day for soccer. We were short a player with Sebastian sick, so we had eleven. Again, I thought we played well. It seemed more even than the score shows. We had our own chances to score but just could not get it in the net. Brodie played another great game in goal. The goals scored were just good shots. Being a goal keeper when we are getting scored on a lot is really tough mentally, and I want to commend Brodie for giving it his all right to the end. He is showing some strong character. In fact, the entire team showed that they do not give up. They played hard right until the end.
At the half, I decided to move a few players around. I plan to continue this. Nolan had some great efforts as a forward and almost scored!
We still need to do the basics....marking up on kicks and throw-ins. We also need to do better on our offensive throw-ins. We cannot just give up the ball. We are slowly making progress each game though. I was really pleased to see that Mark was able to remember what I had talked to him about in practice. He also played very well.
We will have a hard week of practice to get ready for Basin United. We know they are tough.
Great job everyone!
