That's awesome that they shutout all the sting teams unlucky that they didn't get a win against Dunstan I suppose. lol

They all worked hard and got first in their brackets the first weekend of qualifying. Its really hard to see that some parents feel the need to say one team is more deserving or luckier than the other. I think all the teams worked their butts off this summer and made plenty of sacrifices, not just Andromeda.
I am sure the girls are disappointed which is expected. We all have had to tell our DDs that things don't always go your way even when you work and try your hardest. Its part of life and learning. Good luck to Andromeda and all the other teams that didn't qualify.
Looking at the qualifying schedule for the second weekend, Evolution and Lightning played two games on Saturday. They both had to play their second games within a three hour window against 24 hour rested teams. I don't see the advantage in that and I don't think the scores accurately show what could have been if both teams were evenly rested. Sparta is a great team but I don't think they would have won 6-0 if Evolution was rested. In the other bracket Sting Sanchez and Sting Dunstan played two games as well but they played their first games against teams who only had one game that day. 3 hours later they played each other after they both already played their first game. That to me seems fair.
Good Job Texas Lightning and to the 11 year who took the corner, what a goal!
This thread has taken off. A lot of first time posters. Unfortunate that Andro/Lightning game had to end like that. What would the Sparta/Evolution score have been, if Evolution was rested? Evolution is a good team-- losing to Lighting only 2-1. They were my sleeper team to get in.
Sparta--Mustangs match would have been fun to watch.

Within the first 2 seconds you get a very good shot of that part of the goal / net in question. I would love for any reasonable person to point out the area where a size 4 soccer ball will go through this net. According to soccerhelp.com the squares are probably 4" so the only spot with more than 4 available inches would be behind the tire and nobody is silly enough to suggest it went in there. Folks, this is a goal. Nice strike, better result.
I think everyone who is watching the video and doesn't think that is a goal is loaded!

After watching the video a bunch of times, it does appear that the goalie is off the line about a step and not on the actual pole. The ball does go in the front of the goal not the side. Those goals do not have holes in them that a ball could just go through. The nets are clipped in. Sorry Andromeda this time you lost fair and square. You will do great with Coach Jon! He is a great coach!
My daughter has played all of these teams and I have to say if anyone deserves it this weekend it would be Sparta, Lightning, Mustangs and Sting North Garrett. We went and watched Sting North this weekend and they completely shut Sting Sanchez down, but lost off a bad clearance. Sanchez girl took a great shot and it went in. Now Mustangs out played Sting North Friday, but Mustangs have a few solid players that change the game. Same with Sunday. Sting North totally out played Dunstan but had problems scoring and ended up tying.
Did they score a goal this weekend or in King Tut? Whose things help!

Re: LHGCL Weekend 2
Our coach may or may not be the greatest soccer coach available to our girls. That is for greater soccer minds than mine to determine. What I do know is there is not a greater person I would want influencing the life of my child than Jon. We are the lucky team, so you can give us that nickname if you like.
So congrats again to the Mustangs, Sparta, Sting Sanchez, and especially Texas Lightning. I'm sure our girls will see your girls on a pitch soon!

I know this Andro Red team well and I know you've had more than your share of misfortune this year. You all are a resilient bunch! Hold your head up and keep moving forward. When your injured players return, you'll be a force to be reckoned with.
