Sporting their Manchester City, Light Blue, the Orangemen took-on FC Valpo underneath the lights at Lake Fairfax and a chilly fall evening at the end of the match the temperature had dipped below 50. FC Valpo is the best passing team in the league. They are a little Barcelona with their ability to pass pass pass. They beat us as the final score was 2 to 4. However, that doesn’t tell the entire story or the effort we put in during the second half. Valpo scored three of their four goals in the first half, and we did not have an answer. But Mooch made a single change to the defense, putting Matt’s wheels in the stopper position, and we only allowed a single goal in the second half. So the fIrst half 0 to 3 but in we won the second half 2 to 1
Jermaine scored the goals in the second half, scoring 1 during run of play and the second on a PK when he was fouled in the box.
Jermaine and Will H both got yellow cards during the match and had to sit out for 5 minutes.
Jermaine brought Pre, his girlfriend, with him, how played for George Mason in the Central midfield. Her skills were apparent.
Winning the second half, or at least doing much better, has become one of the Orangemen signatures. It still sucks to lose, but drawing out a positive from the experience still feels a lot better.
