SPARTANS LOSE HEATED GAME

GOOD GOALTENDING KEEPS THEM FROM SECOND WIN

Can't Buy a Goal These Days!

"I'm very proud of the boys today," revealed Coach Baron,"They played like a team for the most part and really tested the opponents. The best team did not win today."

The Spartans were unusual in that they dominated the game from start to finish. A few sloppy and unlucky plays, plus an own goal, sealed their fate against a red hot goalie.

"I'm not sure how he gets those," yelled an exasperated Abe, who tested the goalie with some fine shots.

"It was frustrating for Spartan Fans," commented Commentator Jason de Bos," who saw their team at their best. I was particularily impressed with the work of Scott and F'n J, who both were playing hard and pulled the team out of some great pickles."

Our heroes went down by one, after a tricky shot moved past the goalkeeper and into the net.

Things were quickly tied, when Scott sent a pass to Matt, who is rarely one to miss such a gift.

The opponents scored again on a lead in that simply had more dodging skills than anything else.

Back to Scott, who found Dismo with a blistering top up. Game tied.

A late own goal off a corner kick finished the game off, despite so gallant and often interesting moves by the Spartan crew.

"There's nothing that these guys should blame themselves about," finished Coach Baron."the biggest things are being done...now comes the fine tuning!"
