CyberRays-Charge In Game Thread [R] Where is everyone? Starting for the CyberRays- LaKeysia Beene, Thori Bryan, Brandi Chastain, Michelle French, Kelly Lindsey, Dianne Alagich, Carey Dorn, Tisha Venturini-Hoch, Theresa Wagner, Christina Bell, Katia. No Sissi and no Pretinha. Charge- Heather Mitts, Karyn Hall, Erica Iverson, Andrea Alfiler, Zhao Lihong, Michelle Demko, Erin Martin, Mary-Frances Monroe, Mandy Clemens, Tara Koleski. They didn't list their keeper so not sure who it is just yet, no official saves have been recorded.
This game seems a lot like last week's game againist the Charge. We're putting on tons of pressure and have already had 5 shots, the Charge have recorded 1. Quite a few fouls coming from both sides.
Thanks, TV15. Weird not to have Sissi or Pretinha starting. Wonder if it's a 5-3-2 or a 4-4-2 -- ie, where is Di playing?
20:56 SJC -21st Minute. Shot on Goal by 2-Thori Bryan, 4th of season. That'd be a fun thing to see. Apparently everyone is going up. Brandi has already had a few shots and was just called offsides.
Life!! Thanks for coming in. Hard to tell about the line-up so far. Alagich hasn't made the match tracker yet. Our defenders are shooting. Think Sissi and Pretinha will come in at half?
All of this fouling and shooting will have to result in something soon. The Charge are getting a bit more life it seems, though the MatchTracker only tells you so much. Who is in goal for the Charge??
27:31 SJC -28th Minute. Foul Committed by 14-Dianne Alagich, 19th of season. Foul Suffered by 21-Tara Koleski, 5th of season. Guessing that Di is playing back because Koleski is a forward though I could be completely wrong. Just going by the little bit of info that we have.
Watching this on the matchtracker is making me crazy!!! At least Frenchie and Di are starting. With Sissi out, French should be taking all the corners, so time for her to show what she can do. Um...of course we need to GET some more corners. Already had the one...
We've now had 2 shots deflected. Good Lord. It might be worse to actually watch it. Katia is literally shooting non-stop it seems. She's bound to get one in soon. Who is the Charge GK?
33:01 SJC -34th Minute. Goal Scored by 6-Brandi Chastain, 4th of season. Assisted by 9-Katia, 5th of season. WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's about time!!! Anybody notice how Katia's assists have shot up as of late?? GO CYBERRAYS!!!!!! Where's Beth?!
Let's hope this is the start of something wonderful. MatchTracker seems to have stalled a bit. This could get ugly if it doesn't pick it back up soon.
Ah here we go. Lots of crossing and action from Philly now. Maybe the goal woke them up. 38:07 PHI -39th Minute. Cross Pass by 7-Erin Martin Catch/Punch by 1-LaKeysia Beene, 85th of season. 35:16 PHI -36th Minute. Cross Pass by 16-Zhao Lihong 34:48 PHI -35th Minute. Cross Pass by 22-Mandy Clemens I'm eager to see some halftime subs, if there are any. Think they're aware of the Beat game right now?
Once again we are out shooting a team by a decent margin(10-2) but don't have but 1 goal. And geez, if there's no GK then c'mon! What's the excuse?
Brandi and Katia both have 4 shots. Bryan has suffered 2 fouls in the last 4 minutes. What's going on? Is it possible that Brandi is playing up or is just getting around people very well tonight?
i doubt she's playing in the back with french, bryan, boof and di in....i think maybe she's the third forward? i wonder how the midfield is shaped with dorn-venturini-wagner. most probably dorn is the def. mid, but i think wagner could win more balls... who knows??? :::reloads matchtracker:::: elaine
The way the line-up is listed in matchtracker it looks like we're back to our weird 5-3-2 formation with Brandi running all over, but who knows! At least we have a solid set of 4 defenders, so Brandi can go do whatever. Maybe she can stay up so we have like a 4-3-3.... OK I really have no idea what I'm talking about!!
(edited to remove result from other game) OK, we're cool to cross-post results from that match in here? I didn't know for sure....
what is up with the match tracker person avoiding putting up the goalie? it is probably zabala? i thought moore was gonna start.
I'm not sure, and I'm the moderator. Should I edit the title to reflect that it's more than one R, or should I or clavs edit her post? In short, is the other match on TV at all?
