Maremoto FC 3 - 3 Gunners

Maremoto had three beautiful games against Cobra Kai, Seattle's Children and Point Break, but the best one was yet to come. For the team Gunners competing with Ich Liebe for the championship, anything less than a win would have been upsetting. Yet team Maremoto had a defense anchored by Vivian, Enrique and Burak with help from Yong, Andrea, Beth, Sarah, Vasily and Sam. The team were determined to keep the ball away from the speedy Gunners forwards. The game was tied 0-0 through the entire first half and only until the final 16 minutes, when Gunners broke the tie, followed by two additional quick goals. There was not much time left, but the Maremoto was determined to come back from the 0-3 deficit and scored with goals from Michael and Enrique. Then Michael scored the game tying goal. Towards the end of the game, Enrique had a beautiful diving header and Lauren had a perfect shot but both were intercepted by the Gunner's goalie. Maremoto was only a goal away from a win, but executed a game that deserved a big bravo!

Player of the game: Maremoto definitely played well as the entire team and managed to keep the ball away from Gunners and didn't allow them to take advantage of easy shots; however, Gunners speedy offense had cunning shots that were blocked by our team captain Nic!
