FC Lightning 4- 8 Maremoto FC

First of half of the game was competitive. FC Lightning introduced a rough and aggressive play first half with intense collisions, our team got physically punished. Despite the controversial 2 minutes of physical play, Maremoto was still in the game despite FC Lightning leading 3-2, but the most aesthetic goal of the first half was a chipped assist from Michael to Nic. Nic volleyed the ball over the goalie and in the back of the net.

FC Lightning was hoping to keep the score tied by wearing out their opponent with their aggressive game, however, they didn't know that Maremoto was a second half team. Maremoto started to spread the offense and control the ball much better and pushed the game into home team's field. The route was on with Michael's three goals, Beth two goals and one goal each from Enrique, Yong and Nic. The final score 8-4.

Player of the game: This may not have been the highest scoring game for Maremoto, but it was definitely the best performance. One player was able to standout, Beth covered the field from post to post and with her aggressive play pushed the second goal through a defender and a goal keeper.

Goal of the game: When Sarah placed the ball in to the box on a free kick and Enrique had a beautiful header, at that point FC Lightning was aware the game was out of reach.
