Lady Bugs   2 - Kicking Cubs  1

The "Lady Bugs" Youth Soccer Team overcame a tough game against the Kicking Cubs. The score of 2 - 1 reflects the balance between both teams. Ladybugs had complete control of the game...

This game was played on September 25, 1999. It was a picture day for all the teams in the U-8 Division. The high temperature and the long wait for the team's pictures were not an obstacle for the "Lady Bugs" victory.

The game started at 2:00 pm. The first quarter was well balanced and both teams had good opportunities to score. Vanessa, the Ladybugs' goalie played her best game to date. She was able to contain the Kicking Cubs aggressiveness.

In the second quarter, our younger  players (Corina and Gigi) played in the midfield, while Rebecca and Jessica became the strikers. A Kicking Cubs' striker took a bouncing ball from the right zone and scored the first goal at the seventh minute.

Ladybugs were always attacking...

The third quarter was even better, since both teams played their best, trying to score. The ball was transported near both goals, however, this quarter was scoreless. The players were getting tired and showing the effects of the afternoon's heat.

During the fourth quarter, some changes were made in the player's positions. After this quarter's kickoff , the "Lady Bugs" players came back to the field determined to win. In the second minute, Taylour received a long pass from Wendy in  the left midfield and with a fast run and a strong kick to the left side of the goalie, scored the well deserved tying goal . The long waited celebration was loud from the siblings, parents, grandparents and the cheerful crowd that follows the "Lady Bugs" team.

Right after the tying goal, our players were encouraged to keep moving forward. They dominated completely the fourth quarter. Sarah scored the winning goal in a fast run through the middle of the Kicking Cubs' defenders, who were tired of the persistent "Lady Bugs" attack. The celebration was even louder and continued after the game. The members of the cheering crowd were really supportive throughout the game.

The players alternated positions within the game. Our goalie for this game was Vanessa, who played an excellent game.  The defenders Bethany, Wendy, Rebecca, and Jessica were awesome. They kept tight control on the Kicking Cubs' strikers. The midfield also played a great game, containing the Kicking Cub's attack. Our midfielders were Bethany, Sarah, Corina, and Gigi. Lisa, Taylour, Rebecca and Jessica were the strikers. They were always attacking and did not give a break to the Kicking Cubs' defenders.
