In an umbelievable game - Northwestern edged out Lexington 2-0. NW scored off a header in the last minute of the first half.

Incrediably hard fought game. Well played by both teams. Again in the last minute of the second half, Lex. sent everyone but the goalie up in an attempt to score and Enzo had an easy breakaway.

What a game. Good luck to NW.

This is what high school soccer should be! Excitment doesn't come close to describing this match.

great match. both keepers played well and the lexington keeper made a great save on Enzo earlier in the game. Who represents the flags of three countries that the northwestern fans were waiving?

One was England , one was Ireland (I believe) and teh last one was Uruguay (Enzo's)

England for Dominic Wren the coach, Ireland for one of the assistants I think, and Uruguay for Enzo

Defense ruled on both sides. Enzo did score late, but Lexington had sent most everyone up in a last ditch attempt to tie the game.

Lexington's defense was again very tough, as was Northwesterns. Lex's forwards never gave up tonight.

Great game - Congrats to NW. Lexington - fantastic season.

Funny to have 4 countries represented, but 2 of them are coaches. I was thinking some of the big kids were foreignors, but this is no pinewood!

This was an INCREDIBLE game!! Lexington is a very, very good squad and had many chances, but just could not find the net. Northwestern couldn't finish too well either. I was impressed with Lexington and how well they played.

As for the flags:

England represents Dominic Wren, head coach, and Lloyd Gofton, assistant coach

Ireland represents David Garry, assistant coach

Uruguay represents Enzo Martinez

then you had the two northwestern flags so it was 5 flags all waving!!! it was cool looking at that pretty neat idea whoever came up with the idea!!

back to the real story.. yes it was a great game or should i say "battle"... northwestern and lexington had alot of scoring chances i thought just couldn't capitalize which goes to great defense by the keepers and the backs!!

great season lexington!! as from what i saw last night in the program alot of starters coming back and JESS if plays like what he did last night everygame has to be one of the top defenders in the state next year!!!

NW goes to mauldin for the UPPERSTATE cant wait to watch!!!!
goodluck to both teams!
