Your funny, of course it is all about FM, it is their tour event and they won it last year! If Clover wants the credit/writeup step up and host/win one.
As for the game and the calls, you could ask fans from either side and they will point out bad calls against their side. I saw the reffing all day and thought it was even for the most part, by that I mean just as bad and good both ways. I did think the refs let it get to rough but hey that's HS soccer not club, and I would say the Clover Fwd (#24 I think) gave along with what she got just fine without the calls going either way. It was just as bad on the other end where the FM fwds got hammered quite often too.
On the score I think both team play very hard and got solid goals, the FM score was a well earned one on one after a great pass where the fwd beat the keeper; period. The Clover goal was one of the better bent shots I have seen in a girls game she hooked it so hard, IMHO the FM keeper clearly could have blocked it out (she had her hands up then pulled them down), the keeper thought it was going away and then it sliced right inside of the far post. (at least at my angle thats how it looked)
You should also take some credit for your defender saving that header which beat your keeper (who was great by the way), if the def does not clear that at the last sec there would have been no PK's.
Clover won so they were the better team that day but hey we get another shot in a few weeks lets see how that goes before we crown someone champs of the area, it could be Clover, but I would not do it on the strength of a pk shoot out.
Good luck this weekend, who knows maybe that meeting can happen even sooner????????
