Soccer: Win (5-1)

Yay! A win. The first half was pretty close, but we managed to be ahead 2-0. They had one goal that was called back because of an offsides call on a player that didn't touch the ball, which is a little iffy, but I was willing to respect the ref's decision since we finally got one in our favor. The second half felt very different, and we were able to score some easy ones that their goalie should have had. I think we may have been up a player for a while, which probably helped as well. The one they scored was on a corner kick, and I actually kicked it out while playing post but the ref called it a goal. I don't think it was all the way over, but there was no line there and it didn't really matter. I played left back the whole game, and got a few good stops in which was nice. I felt like I only had one really misplayed ball, where I should have put it out but tried to bring it up and didn't quite get it. We were able to hold the line well, which was nice. Alan was back, which really helped the defense feel more cohesive I think. So, overall, a nice feeling to actually win, although I don't think we played a great second half, it was good enough. Strange for most of the breaks to go our way for a change.
