Surf’s first game v Albion was 3-0 Surf. Albion played hard but didn’t put a lot of pressure on the Surf defense, and the Surf goalkeeper was never challenged. Surf had a lot of chances, scoring off a corner kick, a solid shot by their forward, and a PK when their left winger got mugged (not dirty) from behind in the box.
The second game was Surf 1-0 against Arsenal, and was a harder game. 0-0 at half time with Arsenal playing excellent defense. Arsenal came out strong and Surf started on their heals but as time went on, they got their mojo back a little at a time. Arsenal played very aggressively and it was effective. Ref forgot that the game wasn’t about him and caused a lot of interruptions. In the second half, the Surf started controlling the game with many more shots on goal. Special shout out to the Arsenal goalkeeper. Outstanding game and she stopped everything until Surfs forward, who was peppering the goal, finally hit a shot that couldn’t be stopped. Without a doubt, Albion and Arsenal are excellent teams.
