After winning the Semi Finals game 4-0 the Lady Freedom fought hard against the Huntsville team in the Finals. The game tied 1-1 early and Lizzie made another great goal to bring her team ahead 2-1. Then, late in the second half, some “home cooking” gave the Huntsville team a cheap goal. Our goalie had picked up a ball that had gone out over the back line and began to place a goal kick, but the ref never called for a goal kick, and Huntville simply kicked the ball into the goal after the goalie placed it down on the turf.
The game ended tied after extra time, so we went to Penalty Kicks. Unfortunately our girls narrowly lost the PK battle, so we ended up in 2nd place. This was the best finish in a tournament since the team has been playing. We’re all very proud of our girls.
Go Lady Freedom!
Look below soon for Lizzie’s goal.
