The Venus Bulldogs will take on the Godley Wildcats at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both squads will be entering this one on the heels of a big victory.
Venus took a loss when they played away from home on Friday, but their home fans gave them all the motivation they needed on Monday. They blew past Kennedale 4-1. The high-flying offensive performance was a huge turnaround for the Bulldogs considering their one-goal performance the game before.
They hit Kennedale with a three-pronged attack, as the team got scores from Miley Almauger (2), Valerie Miranda, and Alaina Becerra.
Meanwhile, Godley entered their tilt with Alvarado on Monday with two consecutive wins , and they'll enter their next game with three. Their defense stepped up to hand the Indians a 7-0 shutout. Given the Wildcats' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas soccer rankings (they are ranked 117th, while the Indians are ranked 564th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Godley's win was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 8-3. Those victories came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only given up zero goals over those three contests. As for Venus, they are on a roll lately: they've won six of their last eight matchups, which somehow still isn't as good as their 11-3 record this season.
Venus came out on top in a nail-biter against Godley in their previous meeting on February 4th, sneaking past 1-0. Does Venus have another victory up their sleeve, or will Godley turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
