MYSA District Tournament

The day after we won the USA Cup we had the District Tournament.   We played WBL first and WBL played very hard and made it difficult for us.  Sprout scored on a PK in the first half for our only goal of the game.  We were not sharp in the attacking 1/3 offensively but we did not give up anything defensively and the game finished 1-0.

The Championship game pitted us against Eau Claire.  We had yet to beat Eau Claire going into this game losing 1-0 and 2-1 to them during the regular season.  The girls were fired up by the challenge and we came out strong.  Gaffer had a break away that was saved and we had a couple of headers go just wide or over the goal.  At the ten minute mark Gaffer hit a good left footed shot from outside the box to beat the keeper and give us the 1-0 lead.  We played pretty well in the first half, much better than in our first game of the day.

The second half was a little more tense with both teams having a couple of scoring chances but no goals went in.  When the final whistle blew the girls were excited and we had won 1-0.
