Pikers
W 3-2
Report:We played our League game # 11 in Marin this morning
against the Pikers. It was a clean and fun game both
to watch and play. Our guys are playing some good
soccer these days. We were the dominant team from the
start, but found ourselves down a goal after 12 min.
of the first half. The Pikers scored on a questionable
penalty kick, after the ball hit the hand of one of
our guys. We didn’t waste any time, and 3 min. later
the game was level again. Gil made a nice pass to
Chuck, who scored on a really nice shot. We continued
to play well, and looked like the strongest team out
there. The Pikers had the best player on the field in
their main striker, but our defense did a nice job
defending him throughout the game. 1-1 at halftime.

Second half started great for us, when Bob got his
first league goal of the season to give us the lead
after only 5 minutes of the half. This time it was the
Pikers that didn’t waste any time to level the game,
when they scored just a couple of minutes after our
goal. The Pikers got a lot of new players at the end,
but even with the fresh legs, it was our guys that
took the lead again. Michael found Chuck in front our
their goal, and he hammered the ball into their net
for his second goal of the day. The Pikers pushed hard
for a goal in the last 15 minutes, but our guys held
them off, and they only came (really) close once, when
Rio cleared the ball off our goal line to save the day
for us. Final score 3-2 to the Spikes, which put us
back into 3rd place in the league.

Great team effort guys.

Our 14 players were: Adel, Alan, Bob, Brian B., Chuck,
Ed, Gil, Ian, Karl, Matthew S., Michael, Patrick J.,
Rio, York,
