West coast 5-3 Highlanders we had a horrible game that took a while to get going. To give them credit they pressured hard and finished their chances. It was 3-0 before we woke up. We pressed hard and got to 4-3 before they scored late.
Ref was a joke. We showed up at Pitt and they had no lights. Had the game moved to Karina LeBlanc. We then started the game at 8:20 and the ref said we will try and get the game in. Both sides agreed to have no half time. The ref then proceeded to call the first half at 35 min. We asked what was up and he said he had stuff to do. Second half he failed to see us clearly score and called the second half at 35 min too. It was earlier than if we had started on time and played 45 min halves. Pretty sure with 20min more we win this game.
Yep. He claimed the lights were going to go off too early, but they remained on for 30 minutes after he ended the game.
Tale of two halves. Once we got it to 4-3 (plus a disallowed goal that was a good 2 feet over the goal line), Westcoast seemed to panic. Unfortunately we had to throw everybody forward 10 minutes earlier than we should have, and they caught us on the break to open the 2 goal lead again.
We created our own hole, but the ref really didn’t give us much chance to get ourselves out of it.
