OOOOPS! |
"Considering no one came to practices, we looked pretty good for a team that didn't gel."
Our heroes started out on wobbly feet, and the Destroyers were lucky not to finish on a few opening chances. But as the first half progressed, the Spartans unleashed their attack.
Ex-Bundesliga star The Baron handed Abe the first possible goal, but the former Barcelona water boy was unable to find the net. Super star Justin missed the net by mere inches moments later. And Captain Ian connected with a bicycle kick that just missed the net.
"The Spartans looked hot on the pitch," commented Gerry Dobson on his blog,"but were simply unlucky to connect."
On the other hand, the shakey defense seemed to solidify as the game progressed, despite a give away that led to the first and only goal.
"My fault entirely," revealed former net minder Mark,"I thought I was passing to Kyle, but then realized that he was wearing the wrong uniform."
The second half was more of the Spartans. The closest chance came when Tyler hit the goal post once again. The rebound bounced badly, being missed by Baron.
"I should have gone with my gut," said a despondant Baron,"and slide into it."
With the game over and the Mosquitos swarming, the Spartan team dispersed quickly.
"I'm excited about next game," related Ian,"if things work properly, we should have our first win."
