Season Nine, Game Three: Midwest City Lightning


Emi starts at left midfield, takes a tumble fifteen minutes in, and pops back up.

Nice pass!

Emi finishes the half at left defensive back.
After we go up 2-0, the Lightning narrows the first-half margin to one with a goal in the final minute of the half. Emi starts the second half at center of the defensive line--his first time organizing the defensive line. They allow no goals.

After taking a turn at right mid, Emi finishes the game at left defensive back.
With the score tied 2-2, Emi moves forward late to help with the attack.
With two minutes to play, Sam scores the go-ahead goal on a breakaway, and then, with less than a minute to play, our goalie deflects a shot on goal to preserve a narrow 3-2 win and maintain the Energy's clean record through three games. Next week, is Emi's first tournament, and I won't be able to attend because I'll be at an Honors Conference in Arkansas. Yuk!
