Bombastic B Game - May 21, 2013

Bombastic B tied 1-1 with the RGSA Rangers at Burnett Secondary School #1.

Game Summary from Hugh:

Bombastic tied the RGSC Rangers 1-1. After a slow start, Bombastic began to play much better. We had a number of excellent chances foiled by a number of - sometimes - questionable offside calls. Richmond took the lead at about 20 minutes when our defense failed to close quickly enough and they scored on a well taken long shot that Lindsay had no chance on. The rest of the half was back and forth. They had a couple of good low shots that Lindsay did well to save.

The second half was much better. Our passing up the field was fantastic. There was great work between Sadaf and Katrina - one play resulting in Sadaf being one-on-one with their keeper but she unfortunately couldn't get a good enough shot away. Gagan dazzled with a dribbling sequence straight up the spine of the pitch into their 18 yard box but also couldn't finish. Gagan finally got us a goal off of a scramble after a Katrina free kick about half-way through the half. The last quarter of the game was spent mostly in their end with a slew of really good chances. Katrina had some gorgeous corners, many of which we failed get on the end of. Yas had a solid header off one of them that their keeper managed to get a finger on and knock over the bar. Maggie took a number of shots - one hit the crossbar so hard it reverberated!

Overall, a very solid effort. One that we were unlucky not to get the full three points.

Goals:
Gagan - 1
