What a beautiful day for soccer!

This past Sunday the weather was absolutely beautiful! It was sunny and in the high 60's. You can't beat that for an October soccer game. Delaney's Three Lions team was playing the Indiana Invaders at home (two home games in a row, NICE!).















The score was 0-0 for most of the first half, but just before the end, Delaney got off another cross. The ball landed in the center, was fought over a bit, then Addy finally kicked the ball toward the net -- ONLY to have it bounce slightly off the crossbar. There were some anxious moments while we were waiting to see if the referee counted it as a goal. And success, it was a goal! The score was 1-0 as we went into halftime.









The girls were playing so well! It was a pleasure to see them working together, passing well, and controlling the ball. Rachel was playing center midfield most of the game, but she was able to get up close up and take a powerful shot right over everyone's heads and into the goal! I missed the shot! No picture, but she was all but dancing afterwards. The final score was 2-1, Three Lions win!!!
