Yesterday at Blythewood….. them 5 us 0. Spring Valley being the them, us, well us being the us of course.
What has me up late is that while Valley won and deserves the win hands down no doubt, 5-0 seems a bit misleading as to the play of the game in my opinion. SV was very professional in their finishing and pounced on every opportunity and I may get blasted for this by some other folks who would disagree, but I think we gifted them a couple of goals. The wind was obviously a factor with them having the advantage for the first half, but we failed to capitalize on a few chances of our own in the 1st after some really pretty ball work and then in the 2nd half we just did not exploit the advantage of the wind at all.
Between the pipes 5-0 them. On the field, still them but closer than the score would suggest. Hopefully this is the wakeup call that myself and the girls needed.
Ahhh…. Now I think I can go to sleep.
Great job to the Viking Girls.
