On Friday, Blasters lost to Ball Monsters, 3-2, in a game that we could've won. We were up 2-0 most of the game (i assisted on one of the goals! yea me!), and we hit the "post" twice. The first goal i let in was a shot that snaked its way through two defenders and caught me with my feet set improperly, so i just saw the ball pass by not even a foot in front of me, and i couldn't kick it away. The second goal was a bit of bad luck... i smacked it away, but not far enough, and their forward won the one-on-one battle with our defender. The last goal came off a wall bounce that hit my defender and went in, with only a minute to go in the game. Total cheese.
Then, yesterday i got to see Ecuador play very poorly and lose to Uruguay 2-1, which practically guarantees they won't make it to the next round, even if they were to beat Mexico (who just beat tournament favorite Argentina 1-0) by a bunch of goals. Feh.
