OHIO COUNTY

so last night was a really big game against ohio county and the turn out wasnt what i planned. we started the game with some good intensity and had a little mess up in the beginning of the game that allowed them to make their first goal. the goal wasn't all that great but it was still a goal which put our team down 1 to 0. from this we played more intense playing a defensive game trying not to let them score again, but we were also trying to give our forward a breakaway up top to go score. in the last 2 minutes of the game we picked up the intensity even more and got the ball down the field for a corner taken by Hayden and bouncing off about 3 people before Jana got a foot on the ball to make the game tied 1 to 1. the buzzing of the timer for half time got everyone a great break which turned bad quickly after the sound of the buzzer. the lights on the field went out causing about a 15 minute delay in the game causing everyone to become relaxed and unfocused. when the lights finally came back on the game started up again with the second half i think we came out flat and on our heels not ready for their intensity. this brought our team down by a point on a silly shot put off by ohio county making the score 2 to 1. ths didnt bring us down but our defense was just having an off night and we couldnt get our passing together to get the ball up on our side of the field and keep it up there to make a goal. ohio county came out with even more intensity scoring a thrid goal and all of our heads hung low aafter that with no one thinking we could come back from 3 to 1 just brought the game from a high of beating one of our worst rivals to the lowest of low by allowing them 2 more shots on goal to complete the game 5 to 1. walking off th efield in shame and embarassment, tears swelling in my eyes holding them back till i got off the field. going home one unhappy camper for being so close and losing it all in the second half after a long unintentional break. having faith in my team to come out and want it as much as i did wasnt to much to ask i thought but we just really needed everyone on their A game and it just wasnt there. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
