Game #2

11:00am
Summerfield Soccer Complex - Riverview 1st Half 2nd Half Final
Tampa Dynamo FC    1 0 1
Cape Coral Soccer Cyclone 1   1 1 1 4

 

Jayden and her Tampa Dynamo teammates hosted the Cape Coral Soccer Cyclone today in their first home game of the season. Things got off to a slow start for the Dynamo girls, as Cape Coral dominated the action early, and ultimately for the vast majority of the opening half. The Cyclone would score on their second shot of the game, as they made a pass from near the sideline to the front of the net, which resulted in a short shot that found the back of the net, putting the Dynamo girls in a 1-0 hole. Cape Coral would have the only four shots on goal prior to the first water break, which ended up being over an hour long due to a lightning delay as well.

Once play resumed after the long break, the Cyclone picked up where they left off, dominating the action. The Tampa side didn't get their first shot on goal until late in the half, and it was a good one. There was a long pass through the center of the field, and Jayden was racing after it. The Cyclone keeper was also coming out after the ball, but she was slow to pick it up. Jay managed to take it away from her, leaving a wide open field and net in front of her. She took the kick and nailed it, right in the center of the goal for her teams first of the season, making it a 1-1 contest. Jay was definitely pumped to score today, as she enjoyed her celebration afterwards. The 1-1 score would hold until halftime.

With the second half underway, play continued in the Cape Coral end. The Dynamo couldn't generate any consistent offense, and the Cyclone kept pouring it on. They would score again, this time as they outraced the Tampa defense. It looked like the Dynamo keeper was in good position to make the play, playing the angle well. Unfortunately the kick was made to the wide side of the net, moving the score to 2-1 in favor of the Cyclone. They would widen the score further with a goal in between the second half water breaks, this time on a long pass and shot that went right past the Dynamo keeper. That made it a 3-1 game. Shortly before the final whistle Cape Coral would make it a 4-1 game on a long shot that was up high into the net, out of the reach of the Dynamo keeper. That would be it for scoring, as the loss would drop the Tampa Dynamo girls to 0-2 on the season. Better luck next time ladies!
