6-0! and 3-1 too...

second game of the season for the kids, and this time they did it really well (last game ended with an unlucky 5-2-loss). we started the game in a ferocious tempo, and had numerous scoring opportunities in the first half. unfortunately, the ball didn't go in, though they didn't have anything. (we might've had one ball over the line, but didn't get the goal.) however, first half ended 0-0. what did I say in halftime? pretty much nothing at all. I just told them they were doing great and that it's just been bad luck that we hadn't scored yet.
and then came the second half... and suddenly the balls started going in. the first one came quite early on, and then it just kept on coming, evenly distributed throughout the half. I think our goalkeeper had to make about half a save during the entire game.
the kids played so well, kept the ball, passed it around, and some really nice through balls to split open the defence. I was really impressed to see them play like this, really mature style of play. I'm proud and happy :)


and then I had a game on thursday, with work. I scored two goals (stole the second, but the first one was a really nice lob), but the game itself wasn't all that nice. not sure why, but turned out to be quite a boring game. at least we won it, 3-1, so that was pretty much the only positive thing of the game.
