Bombastic B Cup Game - February 5, 2012

Bombastic B won 4-1 against NSGSC Saints at Windsor Secondary.

Game Summary from Hugh:
Bombastic B played a solid game and opened their cup competition with a convincing 4-1 victory over NSGSC Saints. The first half was especially good. After not being able to score on our first few chances, Tanya laid a nicely weighted through ball to Ana who touched it past the defender and scored with a good, low shot. A few minutes later Yasmina crossed deep to the far post and Tanya tapped it in and we were on our way. Megan got the 3rd goal by winning a loose ball at the top of the 18 and calmly finishing with their keeper out of position. A great first half and very satisfying to get some goals after our last 2 games.

The second half was a little less inspired. The Saints got a goal make it 3-1 and had a few decent shots after that. Lindsay was solid in net. I was thinking that another goal for us would be fair result (and goal difference counts in the cup) and just before the final whistle we had one of our nicest goals of the year. Ali intercepted a pass at the top of our 18 and dribbled forward about 20 yards before passing to Louise who had run wide and was at center on the right touch line facing in to receive the pass; Ana then ran towards the right corner to receive Louise's pass, picked up the ball and fed Marion running through the top of their box, took one touch and then hit it hard top corner. Wish I had it on video - so many things done right.

Goals:
Ana Maria - 1
Tanya - 1
Megan - 1
Marion - 1


Three stars of the game:
1. Ana Maria Rubio Izaza
2. Tanya McLean

Honourable mentions to Ali who had her usual strong game and Louise who did really well in her first game for Bombastic.
