After getting blown out in their last game, the Michigan
Impact girls looked more focused today, ready to move back into the victory
column. They controlled the ball for the majority of the game today, and got on
the scoreboard first. They several chances to expand their lead, including a
goal that was waved off due to a "slide tackle". The one goal lead lasted into
halftime. The second half started out much like the first, with the Impact girls
dominating the action but struggling to convert on their chances. As time wore
on the Saline team started to gain control, finally managing to net the game
tying goal. They continued to apply the pressure after that, but the Impact's
defense and goalkeeping were able to prevent a second goal, securing a draw in
the process. It wasn't the outcome that they wanted, but it certainly was better
than the finish of the last game!
