Game 4 of Nightmare at the Rock Tournament

This game is the Championship Game to determine the winner of the U13 White Division at the Nightmare at the Rock Tournament. It is very exciting for our team. First off - we haven't done well at tournaments (record 0-2 ties-4 losses). At this tournament we have 2 wins 1 tie and now this determining game. We've already played the FC Rumble yesterday and beat them 2-0 so we know we can do it, but the question is can we do it under pressure and how much harder will the other team play.

At half time the score was 1-1. YIKES!
Robert had a great game! AGAIN he is so strong on defense. Here he is saving a goal with his back side. I didn't see the ball hit because I was looking through the camera but someone said it was a direct hit to the bottom. Funny.
I love taking photos and for some reason I was able to get quite a few of Robert in this game. Here he is heading the ball
Watching - timing
Passing the ball before the opponent arrives
dribbling for good position
look at the height of that jump for the header!
WOW! I'm impressed!
Okay, now we are on fire. Robert with the ball in total control.

The entire team had a great game and won the game 2-1. Goals by Ben and Drew (one an indirect kick). It was a great game - great victory! The boys were thrilled!
