Bombastic B Game - May 29, 2012

Bombastic B lost 5-2 to Squamish United at Windermere HS.

Game Summary from Hugh:
Bombastic B lost 5-2 in a hard fought battle against Squamish United. The score was not a fair reflection of the play, as we had some very good ball possession and spent a lot of time in the opposition end. However, Squamish are a physical and skilled team with really no weak players; they proved to be great finishers and our mistakes were punished. We were up 1-0 early on Gagan’s 3rd goal in a row for Bombastic, but soon it was tied on talented move and good shot by a Squamish player. We carried the play for the next 10 minutes or so, however, Squamish counter attacked very well and scored twice to be up 3-1 at the half. We really felt we could come back and there was some good play in the second half. Their keeper was very good; we had some shots right at her and other occasions she came well out of the net to play balls  that we had put over their backline. Squamish scored twice more while we were pressing forward. Jenny added a late penalty.

Goals:
Gagan - 1
Jenny - 1

3 stars of the game:
1. Jenny - great energy and effort the whole game
2. Christina - solid defending, won a lot of loose balls
3. Gagan - won many physical battles and transitioned us from defence to offence
