Sunday December 23, Christmas Eve Eve

Cold but clear and calm at 8:30 game time.  In all 28 or 29 guys showed up to play and it was a pretty active match. Jake & Justin joined us, and Will. Nice to have the boys there.  Sorry to say but I've misplaced my score-pad but I remember the gist of it.  Steve in the blue net, but also Minor and Kevin, Keith in the white net and also Will & Dave.  Scoring by Jeff & Dave for blue to get things started, followed by a lot of scoring by Imad, Mario, Keeble, even Jay & Will, for the whites.  Minor & Ben had a head banging event that left Minor with a bloody lip.  The day became sunnier and warmer, real nice. At the end it was about 5 blue to 10 white.

After the game about 18 of us assembled at the AB&G, Allendale Bar & Grill, for a holiday brunch and futbol match on the big screen.  Slight snafu in that AB&G forgot to subscribe to the Fox Soccer Channel, so the anticipated game wasn't available.  Just as well, Adam's team lost 8-0.  We watched a replay of an Italy game and a festive time was had by all.

Next week we will be back to 9AM start, and get ready to get up early on New Years Day for a rematch.

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!

Found the pad:

Dominic to Jeff for blue, 1-0
Dave off a corner kick for blue, 2-0
George with an errant pass back to Steve intercepted by Keebs, for white, 2-1
Jay for white, 2-2
Vince for white, 2-3
Imad's shot bounces off Steve for a save but then bounces off me for an OG, 2-4
Mario, 2-5
Justin for white, 2-6
Mario, 2-7
At this point Minor came back into the game as blue keeper and Vince came over to the blue team.
Imad to head of Mario, 2-8
Jeff for blue, 3-8
Minor for blue, 4-8 (Kevin in the net)
Mario from an offsides position, 4-9
Jay off a corner kick by Big Dave, 4-10
Jeff, 5-10
Imad to Will, 5-11
