SDFC 1 - Westside 2 (PK)
We scored late in the 1st half off a corner. Westside tied it early in the 2nd half off a PK. We were gassed, same story as the game late in December, and missing our star striker but otherwise no excuses. Westside pushed hard in the 2nd but didn't manage much, except a...
There were some questionable calls/no calls for sure. But it went both ways. We were upset about some things we thought were wrong as well, as is typical in any match - and typically more so when you're on the losing end of a match. You didn't lose because of the ref, we were already up 2-0 and...
In 3A, statement win for Strathcona over Lobbans. The loss pretty much puts Lobbans outside of the promotion race. Westside can't afford anything less than 3 wins from their remaining 3 matches if they want to keep the pressure on Strathcona.
Was nice to finally get a W after a tough streak...
SDFC with a 1-6 loss to Westside in 3A. That's what happens when you're missing your entire backline, and both your goalies. We were lucky we were able to even field a team. Our best player was late and had to leave at half time which also didn't help. It was actually 2-1 after 50 minutes, but...
5 straight losses for PCOV after starting 5-2-1 in 3A. They're a good team so thats a little surprising. They were beating us 1-0 for most of the game 2 weeks ago (even though their goal came from a blatantly offside player), but we managed to come back in the last 20 mins to win.
We handled...
We finally pulled together and put some balls in the onion bag, beating VanCity Snipers 4-1. Was expecting more of a battle from them after their tie with Strathcona the week prior.
Would be a good one to go watch. I think Strathcona will find a way to pull in the 3 points.
South Delta 2 - PCOV 1
PCOV scored in the first half on a thru ball to an offside player. Ballsack. We came out strong in the 2nd half despite losing a couple players in the 1st half to injury, our no warmup format is catching up to us. Managed to put 2 goals away in the final 20 minutes...
Another disappointing loss for South Delta last night. Again struggled to convert on our opportunities, while our D held strong and America was able to convert on their only 2 chances - one off a rebound that found their striker finish the crumbs and the second off a cross that was parried away...
5 way tie in 3A for 1st place. interesting times. We lost to Lobbans at home Friday 1-0. Decent match, they were quick but none of their players really stood out. They scored about 30 mins in, broke out up the right wing, cut in and shot from the right side of the box, curled it around our...
South Delta 1 - Celtic 0
Again we had a strong 1st half but faded in the 2nd. Scored later in the 1st half, caught the goalie out and one of our strikers chipped it in on the turnover. 2nd half we were down a man for the last 20 minutes after one of our players took a 2nd caution, bit of a...
Bowen 2 - SDFC 0
We controlled the first half but some sloppy play battling the wind and rain all night. Couldn't convert with the wind at our backs in the first half (literally and figuratively). 0-0 at half. Bowen dominated the 2nd half, scored a roller catching our keeper on his heels and...
They were c*nts against us as well. So join the club. A couple of their guys were throwing elbows if they didn't like how closely we were defending them. It's one thing to try and cheat a little for an advantage, like a jersey tug or a push, it's a completely different thing when you're doing...
Westside was good, definitely young and fast but defence is beatable. It's easy to get under their skin and throw them off their game. They'll do well just based off their youth and speed. We've yet to play Lobbans (this season) and I expect they'll be solid, they're always well coached if Randy...
Ugly outting for SD Rangers last night against Coq Metro Ford in the 3C pool. We were unexpectedly missing a couple guys, but I don't think that would've changed a thing. Coq was very well organized, fast, and move the ball very well around the entire pitch. They play a diamond shape in the...
Just wanted to say cheers to Shaheen! They rolled us 5-1 in the first game of the season, and a couple of their lads told us to have fun in the relegation zone all season during the post game handshake.
Karma is a bitch.
South Delta div3 squad facing off against their div1 CAT team. Will be an interesting match as these two teams practice together and are all buddies. Our div3 guys have had a tough season in a competitive 3A tier, there's a pretty clear divide between the top 5 and bottom 5 in that tier. The...
That's a shocker.
Will be an interesting rematch for the Royals taking on Shaheen this weekend, after they wiped us 5-1 in the season opener. We've strung a couple wins together and were unlucky not to take 3 pts from Akal this past weekend. That said, no easy games in this division - as seen...
0-0 at full time out here in South Delta. First half was a little unsettled on both sides. South Delta had a couple golden chances but missed the goal on both. Guildford dominated the 2nd half and were unlucky not to score. Guildford brought a semi pro film crew and 12 subs - too bad.
