RSSC Lightning '97: 0 - Future Stars: 1
RSSC Lightning '97 opened up thier season with a runner-up placing at the Troy City Classic tournament over the Labor Day weekend.
The first macth-up was with a very strong Future Stars team. Lightning conceded an early goal, but held off the rest of the half. In the second half Lightning score 3 unanswered goals before allowing the Stars to score one more to pull within one. But that was it for the match. 3-2 victory for Lightning.
The second game was very flat and RSSC never got into the groove of it. Troy score an opportune goal and that was it for the game. 1-0 loss.
Sunday morning Lighning seemed to learn the lesson about ahowing up to every match and giving full intensity and effort. They rolled to a convincing 4-0 win over Cant Quest.
The finals featured a rematch between Lightning and Future Stars. It was a magnificent game both way with both teams very strong on defense and not allowing many chances. Unfortunately for Lightning, with a mere 10 seconds left in the match, Stars took advantage of a defensive gap and finished the shot to steal a 1-0 win and the championship standing.
Nonetheless, it was an excellent weekend for us. When we were on our game, we were very good. Hopefully the lessons regarding lapses in attention are learned and we can build on the strengths we a displaying.
Great job girls! Next weekend... road trip!
