Soccer: Win (3-2)

Check that out, another win! And a respectable score, even. We scored three nice goals in the first half. The offense kept up the pressure so the defense looked really good because they weren't getting good chances. We did give up one goal on a penalty kick, but that's not a big deal. Mark had one really good stop where he came out on a one-on-one and the attacker tried to maul him and got called for the foul. The second half was closer, they started playing more aggressively and our midfield started to drift a little. We gave up the one goal on the third corner kick in a row they had. The ball first went in to the guy I was covering, he dropped it off to someone who kicked it and it got redirected in. So I felt partially responsible but not completely. I think I played a pretty decent game, though, forcing them into mistakes and not getting beaten too terribly. Our defense is really starting to come together, and less emphasis on the offsides trap seems to be helping. Only a few more games left and then we are back to B league! We'd better kick butt during B league.
