002pulled up in a minute last time we played low we we got beat two to one well fought game we controlled most of the game hopefully we can do that tonight y Spartan's in the middle of a pretty good run right now so we'll see how things go Ken Marino looks back to Anna Roman Anna drops the ball back to Jill Stevens plays a long ball up to Addie Jordan and oops spe outside Susa looks to operate gives the ball ball goes through skips through Save By The Keeper L will look to build out of the back so I like to see those three quick passes and get a shot off game the other day we had didn't I think we only had six shots on that the entire game so yes we'd like to
003try to increase the frequency of those today the ball comes from Kylie Marino out of the back nice ball nice touch through by m Wht pressure by pressure by whitw and Jordan well done blo manages to escape pull the ball out to Midfield plays a long ball to the corner nicely done looks like y plays the ball back one by Anna Roman not controlled by easta oh now it comes out of the back step in front very good Bella white with ball to Addy Jordan one there again by Bella ball goes over the top and it's going to bounce around a little bit There He Go settle it Kenna looks to build with a long ball through misplay but recovery just keep her out there don't let her turn good job the Shadow with good
004pressure there blood low as they always do very comfortable playing the ball back and forth don't mind dropping the ball back play a very patient game with possession and wait for their windows [Music] try to find those seams when they see them plays the ball too wide at Midfield for an each long meow throw in we get the ball like this i' really like to see him we have Mia petto out real wide yep we got to get those balls to the outsides Jordan wins but gets whistled for a push that's the little tap from behind we'll get a l low restart from their own defensive end the slow backs hold the line at about the 25 yard line ball is played just about right to that line ball is batted around here look to
005establish control LL seems to have it Ava freeze at Midfield distributes to the outside nicely defended there by Bella white oh sorry no that was madow sorry these pink jerseys are throwing me off a little bit is trying to recognize these numbers nicely run down the ball comes through erson watches it go out for an e slow goal kick looks like llo is going with a 352 they really want to uh have a lot of girls in the Midfield so if we can get that ball outside there's going to be a lot of room for us yep a lot of open space he said that's the that's the one thing with that three-back system like you said nice to have those five midfielders but if you can get some penetration find those seams in the
006back controlled there by Mac looks to drop it hand referee held his called there for a minute thought we might have gotten away with it but the late whistle calls the hand ball last time we played L I think they they were played with a 43 three I believe think that's right yeah so they too are switching it up against us we we controlled the ball a lot of the game last time good shielding by well Kylie Marino lllo drops the ball back into their own defensive end comes up to Midfield looks for a service to the corner not there run down harmlessly by kenam Marino outside big throw in ball is contested for possession here still not a clear possession decided low wins that scrape Jill Stevens in the back got space nice ball
007o get to it Addie on the keeper just touch it by her oh but a good save by the yep nice save lock it in now that was a good Ball by Bella Bella white good Hustle by Addy Jordan really did find that seam and Addy ran down nice Save By The Keeper there nice save okay so we'll wait for the restart here East L with a good throwin ball goes to the middle petto gives Chase Susa on makes enough contact to disrupt the action there nice step by to Anna Mar Anna Roman there good distribution by white to the outside petto looks looks for Jordan through o just missed the connection there runs it down throw well done well done Kylie Marino with the throw looks for some options waits for runners ball goes
008up and over [Music] held there nicely pressured by Roman ball comes out of the back with time for Kylie to settle a switch distributes to soua Yeah by looks to oh nice ball to Jordan get some Runners for nice ball through finish it off Mia petto well done M runs it down have it kid oh that's deflected that'll be a corner that'll be that'll be an East met Corner o oh no still in one by East Long Meadow still possessed good oh nice distribution there good back let's go switch need to do get out wi Kylie yep yep time to settle now you have options you got see the field take it to space nice service to the middle beautiful ball well done nicely dropped off by Bella Susa to mcki who drops the ball
009back to Anna Roman who looks again find Susa that's good possession there lovely pulled back by Bella this is what I like to see six or seven very nice passes together there and pressure goes through mcky with a good header on down that was good possession Jee that's that's that's what I like to see that's better I mean you the defense doesn't know what to do they're not they don't know whether to step or not eventually we're going to have those passing Lanes we're going to get a bunch of shots off him we'll take that all day long yep anytime you can put that amount of traffic in with that close possession that's good 31 minutes well 31 and a half minutes remaining of the first half here in East L Meadow the action between
010the Spartans and the Lions no score ball goes all the way back to Kenna Marino looks to Bella white Bella looks to operate and goes back to Center back Jill Stevens she pushes and switches the field to Kylie out here Kylie with room to room to fill that space and she takes it nicely done good ball down if anybody can run it down petto can nice save by Mia yep good time for Kylie yep lovely o nice layoff Touch by Jordan yep lovely layoff Susa just a little bit too long for her oh but she's there plays the chip and she's called for the push Emma always does a good job she just seems to wrap her legs around the girls has the ball and all of a sudden she takes her legs and just
011knocks the ball around somehow yep gets that ball she does at least like 15 times a game gets that ball free dangerous ball in the back there oops nicely won by mne Bella white with the ball back in looking to find Jordan can't quite get it to her blood L controls out of the back Kenna looks to maintain control out there Ken Marino and it's played out of bounds wide by the Lions substitutions Ari Goldman Eve Butler and Gabby disi in for Mia petto Anna Roman and Saina mne Flawless job on the substitutions Jeff thank you it's gonna get I can't see their numbers and half the girls kind of look alike from up here especially like I said somehow I don't know those I think with my old eyes those gray numbers on the
012pink jerseys are going to not quite as easy to see for me we'll see then they change up the cleats and then I'm in real trouble all all all done ball goes back Marino looks to play a ball to across let that go through oh ni step by the defender yep I like the idea from Jordan trying to Shield the ball Let It Go by let the ball do all the work freeze looks to distribute through she gives a nice ball to sakka sakka with room steps in front Bella looks to clear that ball to the side for East lto to regroup and start again throwing in from the near sideline nicely defended by Kylie Marino no room to turn for that player very well done excellent that's an e l throw and super defensive
013positioning right there will wait for the throwi in and it's up and Jordan wins it and soua wins it find some space a little bit jammed up over here maybe a look to switch that ball a little bit crowded here on this near sideline don't let her turn there you go good work by [Music] Gabby we'll hold on the lllo throw in while lllo makes one substitution in the back and one substitution up front bve Carter out and I don't know well that's close enough we'll do what we can I got the Road Warriors that's good that's off of low that'll be an East meow throw in Kylie coming out of the back and the ball goes back to Jill Stevens and Jill with a little bit of pressure but is's able to win that
014ball Kylie serves a long ball to the corner maybe that may just be a little bit too heavy we'll see good chase by Addie Jordan but a little bit too heavy on that touch good idea to serve that corner just a little bit a little bit less air under that Ball blow looks to build a short goal kick out of the back with this particular setup I would expect to see this go short yep there it is and this is something we they had a tough time last time we played it obviously you want to have possession but if you can lock it down and force him to just it right get possession on the ball I'd much rather wi it win it at the 20 than I would yes AB that's a good place
015see then they just kick it now we get the possession somebody turn by Kylie nice another nice turn good ball goes through to E Butler and this is a this is a problem with some numbers for lllo here nicely distributed by freeze is SLO does a good job getting back there go neutralizing those numbers capitalize on that that's one of those things ball now Corner one more to the corner yes good ball get there Ari Ari get good job Ari well done o that was a good Counterattack that's nice that's one things when we had the when the ball here we tend to do that a lot we get the ball it just came from one side you know that they they're powering all of one side when you get the ball look for that
016switch when you get that ball go into the Midfield take a couple touches and switch it to the other side of the field there's a lot more room on that other side of the field we've done won by Jordan oh sorry that was Max sorry my fault black cleats yeah that's what I have to do good work but you're right though the idea of not trying to continue to put it back where it just came from pressure and trying to find an area where you find a new point of changing the point of attack um by switching that ball up it's tough everybody wants to go to you know dominantly right you want to come back to the right hand side yep Marina with 20 yards to move the ball she just now to Jordan
017nobody's nobody's making any runs tries to find Mack and that see not quite B white with a chance to move the ball through drops it back to Eve Butler got to be quicker and Kylie steps nicely Kylie Marino to win that ball what does she have somebody's got to help her there there you go nice Ball by Eve yep I'm a beater good good good thought there might be a Mis touch through there Jill Stevens with the headball back in Gabby Shields the ball nicely good idea yep Jill plays a good long ball over the top that's gonna give mat a chance oh Addie Jordan gives Chase I thought that was gonna be a I thought Mack was gonna reciprocate the goal from last week when she when Addie headed it to Mack and Mac
018scored I thought she was going to switch and uh do that we could have the yes would have been nice she got Mia pet in for Gabby disi and Sabina mne in for Emma Sosa Susa it looks like also Addy Jordan coming off and maybe Lily Dunn going in up top yes okay ball looks to switch Butler tries to get there has to beat that pressure good touch to Mia luck gets through Mia looks to St step to beat her she gets around the corner nicely defended oh nicely re by petto well done wins the throwing I know we said it before in these other telecasts or these other streams but and Mia has a terrific motor even when she loses the ball she's always hustling to get back and win that ball back Dunn
019plays it up and over mney plays a nice dangerous ball into the middle first touch Mack leaves it outside stretching to get it got to play a nice easy ball for your teammates to handle there we'll try to reset and [Music] regroup lllo throws it in from the far sideline easto denies the turn makes lllo play the ball back they continue to play a back switching Fields good hustle and now it'll go up the ball is won by Jill Stevens see little bit of pressure from Lily D forces their Defender to just clear the ball now we have possession of the ball oops nicely won by Good Touch by Kenna Kenna nice and controls it she'll continue to move through to ma let's give her an option gives it back to Kenna who continues that
020run pushes the ball to the outside to is that Goldman good job Goldman turn the corner she gets the corner on her drops it back to MC turn oh oh beautiful turn nice pass by Ari nice turn and shot by m Wht with it just gets wide Emma s Susa Addie Jordan Anna Roman Eve Butler Bella white and Ari Goldman are out as many times as I've seen that move where Mac drops her shoulder and turns like that I still it drops my jaw every time I see it she does it she's fantastic with that quick turn here comes the corner served one by Jill Stevens who they brought up from the back for her skills winning balls out of the air but you do need to make sure that somebody comes back and covers
021until Jill's able to reestablish that position that's the old backpedal uh trying to head ball that goes back to baseball time soon as you start backpedaling you know you're in trouble yes in my case in baseball it was as soon as you put the glove on you knew you were in trouble but we'll switch the ball this way Kylie Marino brings it outside after the distribution from Jill Stevens she looks to go by the L player she does she serves it nicely switch an a Roman Roman goes to Jordan Jordan pushes the right idea yeah just have to hit that seam good win by Sabina yep goes back to Jill Jill has time to survey the field see where she wants to serve it moves it this way to Kylie Marino certainly been good possession
022so far from the from the Spartans and good work by Ma to come back Yep missusa looks to distribute she's got time to see the field pushes it through nice nice touch to petto just almost half a step there maybe Susa leans in with a terrific tackle great nice turn by Addie look at the corners you got let's have it have a shot kid have a shot kid lays it off one more one more there we go shot kid that's a hand ball in the Box call it there we go good work by m petto to get the shot off and we're getting a PK good work by Mia and that's that's the result of good hard work and good ball movement so at the 20 at the 2025 Mark East Long medow awarded a
023penalty kick from the spot with the call for handling In The Box by the llo Defender looks like Addie Jordan will be on the kick and Jordan puts it home fantastic she's she's really sure she had three last year I believe she had three PK kicks and scored them all and no change from last year to this year Addy Jordan with a PK goal from a great uh started over here with me at the Shadow trying to cross with their left foot that was the uh Addy Jordan Addy Jordan I believe she's [Music] four so the Spartans are on the board first 20 minutes to go in the half eong medal goal scored by number four Addie Jordan so it's good to capitalize on that certainly you want to you want to maximize every opportunity
024you have the ball goes back it looks like it's between Kylie and Emerson Vino keeper Smothers it waights looks like she'll jog it across the switch Fields goals have been few and far between in some games Jeff so we'll take every single one we can get we we take everyone I mean I there's only two times I think we've had a one goal difference in the game and is when we got crushed by Hampton and when we scored three against uh West Springfield so so we will we will take the goals hard fought match the other day against beler toown yes that was a one- nothing one- nothing game um emusa five hold the goalie to get the goal oops somebody needs to step in front and the ball is in and Vino Smothers it
025yeah that belr toown game the I mean everyone's been playing well the defense certainly deserves some Kudos that's I believe um a number of consecutive shutouts yeah um for the defense which is terrific you always like to see that was that four I think it's four I think it's four I think that's right yes I think it's four I do believe that's since uh Kylie Marino's been starting back there the Freshman nice ball from sus oh almost they gets through Roman with a Chance Roman with a Chance freeze get toot on it to lay it Bo but still controlled by East Low Jordan with time she gives the ball to the corner can petto get there it might be a little bit long even for oh for p Wheels yes even a little long for
026me another yard another yard she would have had it maybe the flag wasn't there either but you know what if you're gonna lock them in lock them in in the back back corner exactly right uh we got Anna Martin in for Mia petto we have is that Lucy Parson's in for ly dun yep 18 minutes remaining in the first half your East metal Spartans one the visiting lions from lllo zero the difference at this point the penalty kick goal from Addie Jordan Bella white with a cross who's there oh chance to step Jill's up a little bit High here so somebody covers for her Anam Roman gets back you like to see that coverage when somebody makes that step and someone goes to fill in with that pressure cover recover defensive Style balls through and
027controlled by lllo Susa with a step just gets there tough for oh white she gets a good step on that ball well done Bella good pressure excellent Kylie Marino with a good step oh llo had a chance for an overlapping Runner but [Music] Mis completely different look of uh this game compared to the last game normally Belchertown possesses the ball and they were you said ping ponging back and forth I think it stayed between the 30s yes that's what certainly felt like a lot of lot of back and forth very little and limited possession in that game much different today yep see look at how many girls we have over there if we can get just a switch to that other side of the field that frees up so much space llo looks for their
028own switch pushing the ball to The Far Side Kenna steps on the ball there manages to contain that Runner she's called for a push there goalkeeper Emerson Vino calls on the defense decides who she wants in the wall where she's going to set that line dangerous piece for a dangerous piece for a set piece restart here got to watch that angle and any traffic that comes in from the backside here yeah I don't like the uh the spot I like the hits if you're going to hit them hit them outside to 30 yeah over there take that shot out yeah of play now admittedly the angle is pretty wide but if she decides she's going to put the ball across and not try to score and put it back in the middle that's a tough
029ball good head by Jill Stevens clears it out andam Martin chasing it down yep no turn player back well done so we'll regroup on the llo throwing good pressure by Anna Martin and Bella white [Music] there L will restart with a throw in Roman yep sakka tries for the hitch Ste on there y oh Addie tries to play the ball through and just got stopped yep touch through touch through again but unable to clear the zone that ball is played through and will run probably for a is that a deep throw deep throw for a ball that llo gave up on they actually got better than they just oh it is going to be the throw he is going to call it y BL got better than they deserved on a ball they gave up
030on a let go they actually get rewarded with a pretty deep east long met throw in there [Music] Kylie helps matters with a couple of steps on the throw in looks to serve the ball out just m hits it a little bit out of bounds Spartans will regroup for defense deep in their own end on the near side of the field nice header in for lllo and cleared out by Kylie ISO gives Chase Sabina OH sorry was not Sabina yeah my daughter was no longer the shortest one on the team anymore looks to distribute white gives pressure oh almost stepped up again by Susa looks for someone here waits to play the ball back he's going to switch oops got to make sure that pass good oh and it's a through ball that blo does
031not follow in to give Chase to Emerson plays the ball at her feet once picks it up and looks to change the action to The Far Side of the field good ball played out to about Midfield blow's first to it but east Lao plays out nicely shielded by Anna Roman who tries to play a ball to the corner Bella white will give Chase to make the blood Defenders play it watch the line I don't know that I would it's a dangerous move to turn that ball back inside like that good work by Bell to keep to try to turn inside you know if you have time to turn you can play that ball but if there's pressure coming it's always it's always a little dicey to turn that ball inside as a Defender Eve Butler
032I missed all I was not E Butler Gabby toi and somebody else y great emosa nicely won by Gabby yeah we got it Kylie looks to serve across pushes the ball to Eve Eve tries to play it through not quite there settle it yep Sabina does have a chance to settle Shields the ball nicely plays it through to Bella white who also Shields nicely looks to oh nice heel turn there to three girls stays right on it Kylie plays there you go good ball one more from Mari o that's a push yep there we go good work by a good place for a good place for a dead ball service here looks like Kylie Marino will serve it it looks like once again aerial expert Jill Stevens will head into the [Music] box so we'll
033pull Eve Butler to kind of be the holding back along with Kenna while Jill is up front Kylie Marino only a ninth grader but usually a terrific hitter of these dead balls so think it's gonna bounce around we're gonna put in a loose ball or got a good bend to it out wide I think that was off L low Addy Jordan saves it oh or not maybe not low throw in on the far side of the field it's a good throw in big strong throwing off of Eve's head I believe that'll be another low throwing as they make their way down that Far Side another big throw L forced to play the ball back back which again they're more than happy to do sakka looks for the long ball Stepped On by Kenna who plays
034it out to reset and regroup and get a better defensive look we need to uh bring the ball down y play it the feat again get back to the possession soccer we were playing exactly yep switch on this side of the field with Ari Goldman and Gabby switching spots on the field nice step by Kylie yep balls one there oops well contested by mne comes past two lllo players to win that ball Kylie still on the pressure and the ball I thought they were going to turn and play it all the way back but they didn't cut down all the lanes nothing through Leto finds the one through ball that was there there is a runner off sides would have been off sides Ari looks to give Chase takes a hit and slows down the
035long or the l l offensive player no turn on it yep well done all right and we're off oh Center through Max Caesar and is thinking about it trying to find Gabby SC through yep mcky running through looks to find and Slot that ball through doesn't quite make it one by Bella white given back to Sabina have a crack kid fights for the ball there and it'll be a race between Sakira and but three East Defenders back they should be able to step on her here somebody needs to stop the ball stop the ball ball goes to the 18 and that's a tough thing about having that ball get loose right to the middle at the 18 right there it was number 10 I think yeah that's that's that's tough you got that ball should
036have been one when had it when you had before that ball came back to the middle somebody's not picking up the girl that comes into the middle and gets the ball especially on a two on four it's kind of tough I think that's right 10 from 12 10 from 12 well unfortunate one there for the Spartans at the 927 Mark low has gotten The Equalizer one to one here in ISL let's see if the girls can recover and they've certainly dominated play let's get back to that style of possession see if we can punch another one in before the half mne looks to control she does she's got a good runner there and she looks to go through [Music] blood comes back up the outside another run there offside Jill Stevens with the ball out
037of the back one by lllo controlled by lllo drop back looks to go through play the ball back how would you pronounce that mol Molinari is that what it looks like oh that's molari molari Valentina oh Jill gives Chase on the outside oh Cuts she's cut back balls played out defense looks to tighten up try to deny those crosses L goal scored by number Valentina [Music] molari gentlem old [Music] guy we got to get back and regroup they will now lllo looks like what we looked like in the first 10 the first 20 minutes and now they're the tides have turned and gotta try like you said you got to regroup get back to the possession soccer that was working because unfortunately as nice as that possession sock was you gota you have to capitalize
038with goals and that's what looks like a Timeout on the field I'm not sure which team took the timeout uh we'll see so we'll stop stop in the action here with 710 remaining in the first half timeout taken it's a one-1 tie between lllo and East e back 710 left in the first half with a 1-1 tie both teams coming back out after the timeout be I think a is it a goal kick restart here for slow medow believe that's correct ball is put in play by Jill Stevens nice long ball out of the back ball is fought for on the far side distributed almost in Kenna looks to run it down ball is still loose still loose sakka finds it slots a pass in it's going to be hit by lllo from the outside
039this could be a dangerous ball coming in you said it my friend that's too close for comfort right there we get we we just get into those habits of just kicking the ball and man once that starts happening you start panicking and just kicking the ball randomly they just get the ball just keeps coming back and back and back I like it better when the action is down in the low endi that's my that's my favorite SP looks to cradle that touch back to is that mullar oh it was deflected hit the post went off the original shot then deflected let's recover and go from there that easily could have been a go-ahead goal right there it's why you have to be so careful you can't let somebody get a clean look got to step
040in front Ball's played down to mney she looks to distribute stepped in front of by a low player uh Bella white turns holds spins out still no help plays the ball back to Kylie Kylie looks to Addie Addy Jordan wants to go up Over the Top Got mat whitler nice sa with a good ball to D give it there you go come on Emma be there you go Emma turn shoot have it that's a corner take it good work okay looks like that'll be an East long metal corner at about just about the five minute Mark looks like Kylie Marino coming down to take that corner again Jill will come all the way in Kylie Marino ties her ties up her boots before she takes the kick looks to serve there from the corner Addie
041Jordan provides some traffic at the near post then bounces out ball is played right to the middle nice service and it'll be played out for another Uno throw in throw I thought that was going to have the have the back line but it did not Kylie gives that throw in to Addie who hits a nice service to the middle nicely pulled out the air by The Keeper yep good hands on the keeper long switches or sorry llo switches fields and looks to come out of the back they do step down there Bella steps on it there looks to find mne she does Saina with a little bit of a cushion pushes the ball through nicely to suso turns to see it fires oh what a shot by Emma she can pull that trigger with almost
042no room to wind up that's it's Emma's up top and she only has one defender on her it's nice cuz all she has to do is turn and drip it and she does that really really good man she can hit a laser without even loading up for it I think most of the time that ball Knuckles so for that keeper that's a the other day the keeper thought she had it it dropped down and went between her legs okay Kylie serves again a number of pressure in front of the keeper now they bounce out ball comes back out got a foot on it y can't complain about that shot on that right exactly this is more like it get a lot more pressure on them that's what we like let's see for the last three
043and a half minutes we can continue this pressure llo rolls the ball out from the keeper spot to build out of the back see if he can lock that pressure in and out of bounds good all you got to do mark up your girl soon as they play the ball out of the back field everybody in the Midfield marks up a girl cut down those passing lanes and let them just kick and run it big throw in can of plays through and Addie gives Chase Susa wins it cuts it back hit that lines it up again o that is a laser that is a laser keep knocking on the door kid cuz balls like that something's going to get through yeah oh man K way love old plays too when they you know marking up
044the manto man in the back you got Emma I'll take Emma so one-onone with anybody any day yep Kylie Marino looks to drive the ball plays it short to Addie plays it oh no turns on her puts to the middle have it have it somebody have it Savina comes up plays the pressure back and white for three up and over that's S I like that pressure I don't know I don't know if it went through one of our girls legs or anything it looked looked like somebody was down there would have been nice to poke that one in went short to Addie and then Addie was able to turn under Defender and really push a nice ball through um yeah that's the kind of through like everybody the last two minutes of the first half
045will be kept on the field lock this in lock it in right here there you go come on Mackie have a hit kid and she does and it's off of a well not GNA scoot out that was off of a l l Defender but not an intentional playback obviously to the keeper so the keeper can pick it up simply a deflection good ball nice punt out of the back blood low plays a ball up and over she's on she's on side Emerson viho tried to take her didn't get her no that's why you can't let her play that that High Line she was right on side one Defender Counterattack right out of the back last two minutes of the half that's a killer that's a killer you hate to give up and concede in the
046last two minutes of the half he'll tell us [Applause] [Music] four so with just with about a minute left in the first half long b or sorry long B low gets the go-ahead goal two to one on a up and over the top ball that was just barely on side but she certainly was Susa looks to operate going by a Defender o that that's shoulder toosh shoulder you're not gonna win that one with that no you're not I actually think the llo girl laid the hit and she got the worst of it yeah yes yes oh beautiful ball good service by Anna Roman nice touch by m Whit almost getting that to go in yeah that girl lowered her shoulder into Emma and uh didn't come out on the upper hand on that one second
047L goal SC scored by Audrey Alonso nice step by m oh this is a now I've got just about I've time out got the time already expired for the half but I don't have the official time so obviously what I have doesn't matter blood L calls a timeout very very late in the first half imagine it's only a matter of seconds left blood holding on to a two to one lead e and we're back with the closing minutes of the uh second first half llo with a ladies and gent Direct Kick I would assume after she kicks it and the ball is cleared either which way it's okay kick it clear it hopefully we clear it I mean I would really M it's got to be a matter of literally it's got to be a
048matter of seconds left so you want to make sure of everything here win the ball and clear it win the ball and clear it that's what you want to do here nothing foolish nothing ridiculous here in the last in the waning seconds here of the first half step in front of her step in front of her that was a beautifully drawn up play absolutely beautiful kudos to the llo coaching staff that was a terrific terrific play out of the timeout we have a really tough time on those set pces I just don't think we mark up girls there's two girls that are wide open in the back it's a long two that's wow well despite some good possession at the beginning of the half all East L has to show for it is a penalty
049kick llo has countered with two goals of their own as we'll go into the half with your the visiting llo Lions two your East L Spartans one e e e [Music] all right welcome back to the action here both teams just getting ready to break the Huddle getting ready for the closing 40 minutes here after one half the visiting lllo Lions to your Spartans W uh East will look to get back to some of that good possession soccer they played for the first 15 or 20 minutes of the half and see if they can produce something there Jeff I agree with that it's this game seems kind of reminded me the last time we played them they've we dominate majority of the game and then Leo puts together a couple of those little string passes
050they find the back of the net we've had our opportunities and hopefully more will come I think once we start cracking it it it'll start pouring them on I hope that's what we're hoping for right we need to get some more shots from Mack Addie and Emma we can get them to get a bunch of shots his half it'll be that'll be the Difference Maker yep certainly be nice to see us fill up fill up the goal here and really put this put this Out Of Reach that'd be nice see somebody announced the winner of the 5050 the total was actually oh I did everybody theal go ball goes long meow win or long meow I don't know why I keep saying that L wins the ball the 5050 raffle is three we wait here
051pressure comes fromo going all the way through and ball goes up to sakka who settles it pulls it down Bella white with a nice temporary win K weights tries to turn her back to the center does she does 33 two BS contested there tonight's winner is $232 tries to step to the ball Jordan tries to back the foul at the 30 yard [Music] line This is a tough way to start only a minute into the half here going to have to defend a ball that's going to be probably a dangerous ball played into the middle going I need to win this ball and come back out certainly don't want to play from a two- goal deficit here no not not at all Spartans hold that line Emerson Vio looks to move the while the ball's
052being reset it's hard to set your wall as a goalkeeper if the ball is being moved and girls you can move up another five yards too yep you don't have to hold it at the original Place yep hold that line Ball's played over the top of that wall nobody there somebody's got to it's a lot of watching well no one steps in front and the ball goes into via who looks to counter quickly and she does ball goes out Jill's up and on it plays the ball through nicely done to Mack Mack he's got a chance to run onto it maybe just a little too heavy no she does win it wi wins the corner wins the corner well done it's a terrific ball from Emerson to Jill and then Jill all the way up
053to Mac let's see if we can put some pressure on with an early corner here just about two minutes into the into the second half looks like Kylie Marino again will come up to take that kick love to capitalize here get that equalizer early in the half Ball's played to Addie another one of that ball that we saw before out to Emma waiting to see if a shot will be forthcoming like to try to generate a shot out of a corner like that and Ken Marino comes to play the ball back in kirka wins it Jill Stevens still up and not back yet is he playing Jill up and not Jill's Jill's up I I was I was noticing that when that just happened looks like Anna Roman's playing Center [Music] back looks like oh

055stoppage in play long meow long meow I'm going to do that times l player coming off Jill's now switching back to the back Bella white moving up L plays moderately deep ball goes to Addie who has a chance to touch and go by she does turn on the afterburners and get there terrific closing speed as always nice turn yep corner corner good work by Addie Jordan to get that I would like to see one up in the air in the middle here I know the short one has that short hard one has worked but I'd like to see this one sort of up in the middle and get some chaos and some traffic in front of the goalkeeper Kylie resets the ball to serve it again from the far corner that Ball's up and lofted
056yes well done oh off the post what a great head hit Y oh again that was a good good strike good headball by Anna Roman to get it on that keep knocking on the door I like applying this pressure Ari Goldman Gabby Doolan Saina mne and Mia petto are out yeah that's that's a good headball yep just just hits the post we hit the post again on the second one or hit the I think it might hit it might hit that upper post on the second one lock it in we just lock it in I like this yeah now you can put it back in got to be careful in the back there got to be careful that's lot of chasing going on here o Turner outside Turner outside got to turn to the far
057outside there yeah you have the turnovers you don't want to see those lead into those quick transition breakaways somebody has to step to the ball here Jill wins it out of the air and AR Roman looks to turn it and just out of the reach of Ari Goldman Karina masza will get the ball back in good throw in there Roman wins it oh but only momentarily llo controls it plays it back to the middle no free looks for her too much too much too many going to try to minimize the amount of free looks that nice step by Gabby I like that nice transition out y blood maintains the keeps it locked in their offensive zone it's good through ball yep Ken her down that's a corner 32 minutes remaining in the second half Leto
058two to one e lto will set their positioning for a corner kick sakka looks to hit the corner from the near side of the field L with one player on the keeper and running in a number of staggered Runners after that a dummy run through good R by with her it's going to be served back in and it is punch it out off sides okay well done little bit lucky on regrouping the back there yep Jill plays it out Jill Stevens looks for M whitler controls the ball brings it down Bella's got a chance looks to go back now it turns back the other way arri with some uh push there I don't know I push her a trip I missed the call there some I think after the play okay she got into Bella
059white let that go that's a little bit of an advantage but one there by Maza and we trouble not to win that ball at Midfield Anna Roman on the chase down and too much open space that deep in the field you can people that kind of look that's too deep too deep got to do a better job stepping and closing out that ball take a breath a little quicker quicker with the ball regain some composure start to do what we do we got the same thing as in the first half We Got The Field's really spread out there's lots of lot of room space to be had but like you said you've got distribute and move that ball Eve buterin Sabina mme and Lucy parsons's in emosa Bella white and Anna Roman [Music] out ball
060is knocked around momentarily llo controls on the far side line distributes down the far sideline Kenna gives Chase waits to see if the ball will run out it does not he's going to play it up the sideline to her sister oops low wins it there tough place to not maintain possessions kirka comes through the box St by T by Jill that was one slide tackle away from real extreme trouble there he delays that call but then makes it it's going to be another Direct Kick from about the 30 ydd line B on the football field I think Jill did truck three girls in that one play so got her money's worth yeah set that wall wait to see what comes from here ball goes up and through that's a bouncing ball dangerous ball look to
061counter counter good ball there now we've got numbers well got to win it though got to win that ball up in the air bring it down good oops and Max got it at her feet finds finds Addie o big first touch just a little too much I think we can get it that Caper holds her line until the last minute yep she almost didn't come out there she certainly should have been out even earlier than she was yep you're right just a small smaller touch she got that one gotta get that the first one yep [Music] talked pressure try to win that ball knock it Loose uh Addie Jordan gets Tangled Up on the far sideline no call mlo comes out with possession pushes the ball to the middle and starts to build through with
062no pressure no one to pick her up out yard saw that one coming not in the middle things look just a little bit loose for the Spartans right now yeah not not not very disciplined and a little bit loose that ball will go for a goal kick 26 just under 27 minutes remaining uh Ledo leads two to one Jill plays the ball out to kenet coming out of the back Ari Goldman long or lllo takes possession SAA turns it out one again by lllo and controlled there Mac has to check all the way back to win the ball good switch yep you know Ma knows it because she sees it up in the front she knows and you could send Ari again if she makes that quarter R ma through good ball through oh just
063didn't quite through that ball gets through Lily done as a little breakway it's good onew combination play by lllo there low will maintain possession here Jill steps through it that's off a low player that'll be any slow meow throwing let try field let's switch the field quickly good ball from Sabina looks to Addie Jordan who's got her got M uh going a corner run there done there we go get there L too much see that's why we get the ball over here quick one turn switch the field you have all that room over there you put the ball within 10 yards vty Jordan she's got she's gonna get that ball and then she got the one-on-one you just have to be first to the ball first to the ball and don't stab at it correct
064because llo not after the Bel Town game which is really physical yeah llo doesn't seem to be nowhere near as they have a couple girls that not the same way that last game was right their girls in the Midfield aren't don't seem to be as physical so we got to see if we can see if we can capitalize on that try to win some of those balls with a little bit more physical and aggressive play go for another throw in on the far sideline switch it see bring it over to Kenna get it out wide carry it the Space Kid yep you got plenty of room kid you got good room there good there you go now s it back yep unlucky and pressure there good work by AR to get back well got to
065make a better ball there good Lucy looks to turn her oh no sorry and then gotta go through it got to play all the way through that ball look for those that squirt through like that keeper looks to hold and distribute big long punt one in controlled by lllo good work by [Music] Kylie nice serve to Mack in the middle good big step from l in the back jel wins that one and wins it for a second time can't quite win the third time don't just kick it look to control there bring it bring it bring it bring it got to step to the ball y h Troublesome run here for lllo and it's another opportunity for a good shot that fall that falls back to we're running away from the ball some girls have
066to check to the ball everybody's Kenna's bringing the ball up every girl's running away from her nobody's nobody stepping to making a run can't can't just make those straight straight runs take if you take your go if you make a run to the middle of the field the defender goes with you now that gives Kenna the line up to space if the girl steps to Kenna now she you're open in the middle of field and instead we have to defend another Corner low waiting to send in some Runners from the backside ball goes through uh Jill got a piece of that turned out but again it's got to be controlled in one win it Win It win it Gabby I think with a good ball there on the back or was that Emma May Emma
067sorry step by one more yep let's give her a run there a little too much a little too heavy for Anna Martin that touch was a little little little heavy a little too much air under that one m petto in for Lily Dunn just over 21 minutes left in the game two to one lllo mave Carter with the throw in for lllo gets down the line to sakka looks like another low [Music] throwing ball goes back and forth Ava freeze makes her way through three Defenders distributes nicely to sakka Jill's going to have to step on that and she does with a corner put yourself in an awfully tough spot when you don't put the ball on the Leo ends trying to defend when you're behind by a goal is not an optimal situation we
068need to be bringing this kind of pressure to the low end we certainly don't need to be defending it ourselves absolutely over and over and over again so one of the L captains sakka looks to serve the ball in from the near Corner offers a short corner to freeze dummies it it goes through to the back to Kat Maza picked up nicely by East Long Meadow but I've been impressed L those run a number of nice set plays they've got a number of pieces and plays they've run yeah absolutely it Bella through it Bella move up on the center back oh that's you know where it's going you got to somebody's got to get up on that Center back for the anticipate that touch before it comes there's only so many places she can go
069Y and Anna Martin has the ball through looks to serve to Bella white she does Bella offers to the corner be a run through for Mia petto who can't quite get there amusa looks to settle turns to the middle nicely controlled good distribution to Bella white Bella goes back to [Music] Mia ball stops there Kylie Marino with the throw in couple nice little passes right there Susa gives the ball back to Marino who looks back to Susa disrupted by the lllo defense and played forward Joel Stevens with the headball Sabina brings the ball down plays through to Anna Roman back to mne who offers a nice ball through that gets back to just kicking it to nobody and they get the ball freeze goes through Midfield offers one too long to the corner
