Keuka Classic Decieded on Penalty Kicks

Posted by Derek Hamilton on Oct 13 2006 at 05:00PM PDT
Elmira Free Academy pressured Bath for 80 minutes, but couldn't get the goal they needed to win the game in regulation. Kevyn Rustici hit the post on a 25-yard direct kick with about 5 minutes to play as EFA found themselves limited to 10-men on a questionable double yellow card issued to one of thier players late in the match. Even with 10-men, EFA created scoring opportunities before eventually falling 5-4 in penalty kicks to Bath. "We pressured and pressured, but just couldn't get that one goal we needed," stated coach Hamilton. "I feel as if we were the better team tonight, but anything can happen when the game gets to PK's. Bath was given a gameplan and stuck to it." Hamilton said that Bath played with 5 defenders in the back to limit any transition EFA might have had.
