Game 12 Versus The Fire Monkeys

A tough game. The Fire Monkeys have made a series of smart acquisitions during the season, picking up a couple of fellers with South American accents, which, as we all know, adds a +3 to dribbling and shooting.

With the wind at their backs in the first half, the Fire Monkeys came out strong. Their constant pressure payed off and they managed to sneak a goal in off a corner-kick deflection...

In the second half we got our offense together and spent most of the game camped out in front of their goal. We were unable to finish very well, and only barely managed to equalize off a stroke of good luck on our own corner-kick deflection...

The Fire Monkeys did get some good counter-attacks going but our defense held pretty strong. In the cases where they slipped by, our keeper Adam made some amazing saves.

There is more game left in this half of the season. If we win or tie, we keep our first place position and get the invite to the State Cup. However, depending on the result of our rival's match yesterday (they faced a tough Babaganoutch side) we may already be a lock...
