Game #4

5:30pm
Friendship Park - Lake Orion 1st Half 2nd Half Final
Michigan Impact 1 1 2
at TSC Alliance 00G Black 0 0 0

    Despite a busy weekend of tournament games and travel back and forth from the Chicago area, the girls returned to the practice field yesterday to prepare for tonight's make-up game against the TSC Alliance. This is a team that several of the newer Impact players had previously played for, so none of them wanted to lose tonight. Thankfully the Impact girls didn't appear to be too tired from all of their recent work and managed to jump out to the first half lead with a ping-pong goal that bounced off several offensive and defensive players before finally settling into the back of the net. As has happened several times with this team, they were able to generate a lot of offensive attacks on the opposing goal, but really struggled making good on those chances. For the majority of the second half the Alliance team was only a single break away from tying the game, but the Impact defense was able to shut them down. On the other end of the field the Impact eventually broke through once again, this time late in the second half, to seal the victory with a 2-0 score. The win moves the girls to 3-1-0 on the season. Go Impact!
