.........did anyone pick us to win?[/QUOTE said:Actually, no but then again would I ever think I would live to see the day that Dapotayto scored a hatrick? Nice Result and I am glad that Cup is working out better than the regular season.
We played the E.W. Socceroos at Hillcrest on a pitch that was pretty decent given the amount of rain we have had but still not the same as that sweet field turf at our home park. We failed to play with the intensity and urgency that we are going to need in later games. I will attribute this to our long lay off and expect that today's action will spur the squad to turn up a few notches in our next game.
We left all of the scoring for the 2nd half after a first where we had the majority of play but did give up some scoring opportunities to an E.W. sqaud that played with good intensity.
Our first goal came of a good effort by Junior who took a chest pass at 35yds out and dribbled hard before slotting the ball home.
2nd came from a flick on from "Luckless Legs"(Our scoring leader for the past 2 seasons who has not been able to get the monkey off his back all year- 1 shot hit the keeper today and another well taken strike hit a post). I was able to split the D and dropped it up and over the keeper for a 2-0 lead.
Our third goal against a waning E.W. was off of a corner which Big Steve banged in from a few yards out.
Glad to get to the next round but hoping things pickup the next match when we, more than likely, face the Knights of the West...our old nemisis from seasons' past.
