Quinto Alto 6 - Mad Cows 0

I promised to write two rows about the match, but either for the extension or for the content it shall sounds like an obituary. Sadly, the girls available on Wednesday have not enough striking power in hers skills. The worst is the good defensive capabilieties were frustrated too, due of many factors. Outcome a 0-6 and a non quantifiable demoralization. Three goals in the first half -fortunately I came late and I did not see it- and three at the end the second. What I succeded to see was a good defensive match, while the opponents in cooperation with a shoddy referee, were hitting and pulling at will. This is the reason of the final fall: Mi Ah was rudely shot down in the middle of the second half whitout the minimal worry from the referee. Since that moment, People whose saw Totti at final of "Coppa Italia" this year, can understand the upset of Mi Ah. Fortunately she is a polite person -I am personally afraid comparing her with such a bad element- and spent all the rage only running up and down against every opponent in every sector of the pitch. But, in this way, our last striking possibilities ran away totally useless, and no forward pressure means a siege at our goal. The difference between Mi Ah and Totti came out for the last "pear" of the match. Again she was shot down by an opponent, this time just few space from our goal. Maybe she -and Elena with her- was expecting the whistle of the referee for the clear foul, maybe she was afraid to kick away the ball from the ground risking a penalty.. Well, Totti would kick the opponent in this situation, but Mi Ah did not and the girl of the Quinto Alto realized this last sad net. And everybody went away at the top of the mourning.
M.P.
The team: Elena - Amy - Costanza - Mi Ah - Sandra - Stefi
