UNDISCIPLINED SPARTANS CAN ONLY GET BETTER
Opposing Goalie Goes for the Man! |
The team itself looked both jittery and professional in the early first period.
Tragedy came when the Baron was stricken with a severe muscle affliction.
"One minute I'm standing waiting for the corner, and then I'm down on the ground. It was the worst pain I've ever experienced."
Baron was taken to team physicians and did not return to the field.
The Spartans seemed to tap the old energy of years previous, giving up three goals from within the 18.
"We're not sure what happened," said Gerry Dobson, commentating yet again for the Spartans."They covered the long shots, the obvious passes, but failed to clear the short dribbles, which cost them big".
Hope came in the form of a nifty pass from Kevin to Anders.
Kevin, fresh from his sabbatical in the Jamaican League, was a welcome addition to the Spartans.
"I saw the fresh pass, and let it in the crease for Anders. Text book play!"
Anders, congratulated by the team was more shocked than anything else.
"I scored. I actually scored!" he yelled and ran off the field. He would return later after a celebratory orange.
The game was marked with some controversy.
After the Village Inn goalie cold cocked a Spartan without a card, the Spartans seemed to lose discipline.
"It was embarassing," related F'n J,"that I didn't get a chance to score. But with Baron hobbling on the side like a wounded duck, it was hard to concentrate."
"We had some great chances," Baron indicated on his Soccer Map 3000," but in the end we did a lot wrong that needs to be addressed in the future game Sunday."
