Bombastic B Game - November 3, 2012

Bombastic B won 2-0 over MIB Cougars at Van Tech turf.

Game Summary from Hugh:

The Bombastic B ladies won their 3rd game in a row with a solid 2-0 win over MIB Cougars. We started well but had nothing to show for some good play in the first 20 minutes. MIB had a couple of chances in the middle of the first half but really nothing too threatening. Just before half we scored a great goal. Gagan fought really hard for a loose ball against one of their better players, won it, and fed the ball to Maggie who hit a fantastic cross into the box that was headed in by Kaitlin. Very pretty goal, 1-0 at the half. In the second half we carried the play. Barb made a great move at the top of the 18 and hit a hard shot that was deflected over the bar by their very good keeper. A few minutes later Laurie and Sarah combined nicely to send Katrina down the right wing and Barb came from the left to finish off Katrina's great cross.

This was a real team effort. The back four - Laurie, Jana, Christina, and Courtney were all outstanding and Jenny was so valuable in center mid marking their most dangerous and physical player. Brittany was solid in goal and helped out a lot with her chat from from the back.

Goals:
Kaitlin - 1
Barb - 1

Three stars of the game:

1. Jenny Franks - we really needed her physical play and she worked tirelessly all game to shut down their best player
2. Laurie Citynski - the whole back four were just great. Laurie was a big part of the second goal and really moved up the pitch well in the second half
3. Katrina Dittmann - was our biggest threat the whole game - great confidence on the ball and some excellent crosses and corners
