Luckily, the plight was captured by Dinamo Lenser Terra Simms. She should really play for Dinamo Zenit – sorry it’s a crap camera geek joke :

With some folks stuck in traffic, we started the game with 10 on the field, including our Back up GK/ Player Debut – Doug between the sticks. 

A fierce opponent, and in my mind one of the more solid teams in our division, we had 2-3 opportunities that surprised even the well dressed on lookers. One in particular was our 11^th man, new member Julian, who found himself with the ball, in front of the GK for his first touch/kick. 

Then came a corner kick, where we were still gazing at each others fine uniforms, letting their center back all the time he needed to head on in. 

Down two we took the 2^nd half with more determination fueling from our Captains speech, we had them defending, resulting in a free kick, taken by the Croatian Dad – Nenad, and we are 2-1. 

We had them for maybe 15 min, and then a fluke mistake, gave them the ball, and they know how to convert, that’s for sure.

We had a lot of good moments, although most of their balls and possession were due to our mistakes/passes, we now see that the back line has come together, mid field is getting there (welcome Sean), and we do need our all star strikers back in the line up to help the conversion rate go up. 

We will get there….Onwards! 

Now, how was the Griffin?? J
