Lost to Williamston 2-1. For the giant steps forward we made on Tuesday night, this would be two steps back.
Both goals scored while Christopher was on the field; both directly result from him basically saying ‘Ole’ as he attempts to get the ball, misses, and the guy just blows by on a breakaway. Had a talk with him after the first one (about a minute into the game) and re-explained the ‘jockeying’ technique we’ve been asking the kids to use ad-infinitum on defense and reinforced, again, not to lunge at the ball…….and he went in and played awesome smart defense for the rest of the first half and the second half. And then had a brain fart and forgot and the tie game turned into a 2-1 lead for the other team with 2 minutes left to go.
Matthew was there; had two chances in the first half and rushed both and didn’t get great shots on goal…wasn’t really a factor in the second half that much.
