Game Summary

On a brutally cold & rainy Tuesday night with the wind chill in the low 30's, Beethoven defeated Mozart 4-1. Beethoven opened up the scoring with a corner kick that managed to slip past the Mozart near post. The second goal came on a shot just outside the box that swerved past the Mozart goalie. The Mozart attack, led by Selah De Leon, Sophia Barajas, & Alice Betancourt, launched several counter attacks, with Selah missing by inches on a shot across the goal, and Sophia shooting a looping shot that dipped just past the cross bar. Beethoven added a third goal late in the first half, that unfortunately resulted in the injury to the scorer. Mozart came out more aggressively in the 2nd half, but Beethoven was able to add to the lead when Danielle Rocha played a clever ball through the Mozart high line. Undaunted, the Mozart attack put relentless pressure, nearly scoring several times from point blank range, until Jennifer Morin scored the lone goal for Mozart.
