Last weekend I guest played for a soccer team that is based in Iowa City. I have played against them before but this was my first time playing with them.
After a 6 or 7 hour drive, of which I drove 2 hours, we arrived in Kalamazoo with plenty of time to warmup before our first game. The first game didn't go to well, we lost 5-2. The other team scored the first goal and held on to the lead to finish the first half. At the start of the second half we came out strong and scored a goal. The goal was very good, I got the ball and passed it to another player in the middle, he turned and shot from probably 30 yards out and chipped the goalkeeper. After that the other team scored two more goals. We answered with a goal off of a penalty. But it wasn't enough to keep us in the game. They scored a couple more goals and the game was over.
The following day we had our second game which was much better all around. We started really well and went up a goal quickly in to the game. Despite controlling practically the entire half, we went in to half time with the score 1-1. In the second half we agian controlled the run of play but weren't able to come out on top. The game ended 3-2.
Our third and final game was by far our best game of the tournament. We played really well and domintaed the entire game. The final score was 6-1.
