watash Posted January 13, 2010 Report Posted January 13, 2010 Kelly.........................1 0 1Houston Christian........1 1 2Kelly goal: Jenny HernandezKelly assist: Zuri PrinceKelly record: 12-4-1I did not see the game but am told that Kelly played poorly. That should not take anything away from HC who was better tonight and may have the better team. We will find out in the rematch in Beaumont later this month.
rip2506 Posted January 14, 2010 Report Posted January 14, 2010 Kelly dominated the game but failed to capitalize on the opportunities. Zuri had several shots on goal that just did not find the net, one in particular where she broke away cleanly from the defense on a thru ball and then put a brilliant move on a charging goalie, with everyone behind her she pushed it wide left :'( that one hurt. It would have given Kelly the 2-1 lead early in the second half. Later she told me she had a bad angle. From the stands it looked like she could have walked it in. Yasmine Afshar also found herself one on one with the goalie and just could not put it away early in the first half.One of the best plays of the night was when Coach Brittney moved Teilor Long up from her defensive home, to the left mid position. With Madeline and Yasi drawing the defensive and all the attention to the right side of the field. Teilor called for the ball and Madeline hit her with a perfect pass that she dribbled to withing 20yds and hit a rocket which glanced outward off the near post :o. It was just that kind of night.I think there will be a better outcome in the next match.
