Bombastic B Game - June 11, 2013
Bombastic B lost 2-3 to the Vancouver Spurs at Windermere HS.
Game Summary from Hugh:
Once again the B ladies played well and didn't get the result they deserved in a 3-2 defeat to the top-ranked Vancouver Spurs. Particularly in the first half Bombastic carried the play but just couldn't finish. I believe we had 6 corners in the first half. We had a number of solid shots from outside the 18 yard box either just miss or go straight to the keeper. Newcomers, Carol and Shelby created many problems for the Spurs backline with their speed. Their keeper made a great save stopping Shelby from close range. Like the week before, the opposition scored against the run of play - breaking quickly down the right wing with a good through ball to their winger who finished well. Thankfully, Shelby got us back even with about 2 minutes left in the half with a great effort to first win the ball and then fire a great shot from the top of the 18 over the keeper.
The second half was more even, but Bombastic continued to generate chances and corners. However, the Spurs took the lead on an own goal that was a complete fluke - a totally mishit cross hit Tanya's shoulder and bounced in the near corner while Gagan (playing goal) was moving to play the cross at the far corner - nothing anyone could do as the ball painfully rolled into the net. Bombastic came back strong. The Spurs keeper made the save of the game coming out and blocking Katrina's hard low shot with her left hand. As we pushed to get back to even, the Spurs made it 3-1 on a kinda sloppy goal after a cross to the far post. in about the 88th minute, Laurie made a great dribbling run through the midfield and Carol completed the play with a real striker's finish to make it 3-2. Unfortunately there was very little time left to complete the comeback.
Goals:
Shelby - 1
Carol - 1
Three stars of the game: Shelby, Carol, Jana
