Curious as well, figured this would be a much closer game.
There was an own goal in the first 6 minutes. Then a miscommunication in the back on the second. The goal came around 20 minutes in. The game was pretty evenly matched at this point. There was a terrible missed offside call on a free kick for the third goal. The sideline ref agreed with me that the player was off when the ball was played. Instead of correcting the call he gave me a yellow card. That goal was the dagger. Everything after that was just pure fun for Riverside. We knew we would have to play a great game to have a chance of winning this game and we didn't. Riverside took every chance they had and capitalized on it. I am very proud of my girls for not ever giving up. We didn't play the way we wanted to but they left everything on the field that night up until the whistle blew. Riverside is a very good squad from top to bottom and wish them luck the rest of the way.
