Samantha's Michigan Impact soccer team returned to the
field tied for first place against tonight's opponent, the Carpathia Kickers.
Although the Impact girls dominated the vast majority of the time, they
continued to struggle finding the back of the net. They managed to catch some
breaks defensively as well, as a couple of powerful shots on goals were saved
not by the keeper, but by the favorable bounce off of the goalposts. They
finally gave up a goal, on a long shot from a tough angle that very few
goalkeepers could have saved. They did their best to tie things up, but weren't
able to break the ice. Another goal by the Kickers salted the game away, leaving
the Impact team to suffer their first defeat of the season by the 2-0 final
score.
