WUSA Game: The Cyberrays don't need to lose in the final minutes after all...

Yeah, the Cyberrays actually won a game again. How neat! They dominated from the start, but seemed unable to put anything away until finally Katia came through on what, from the stands, seemed like a questionable call. The defender headed it away on the line, but it was counted as a goal. Need to see the replay - and good luck doing that at Spartan Stadium! Things were tense towards the end, though, as the game kept getting more physical (that Wambaugh character seems mean, and big, and definitely deserved at least the yellow card she got) and the Freedom got some chances on goal. But Katia came through again (if only Sissi had some other good targets!) and put the rays up 2-0. I nervously thought to myself "how could they mess up a two goal lead in the closing minutes?" realizing this could be dooming them. But they held tough, responded with some good physical play, and didn't give up anything in the end. Yeah! I actually felt happy after the game, which seemed silly, but I tried to just enjoy it.
