12, 10, 22 kicked major butt today for NWN. the whole team played great. 18 also caught my eye with her intensity.
6, 8, and 14 impressed for Cross in my eyes. i picked 14 to kick the game winner but thought it'd be in regulation. that kid can crank on a ball with the best of em. she'd been doing so throughout the match, but generally from midfield to forwards. when she was pushed up, i had a hunch and she sure delivered. Both feet ...very excellent.
Must say NWN had a chance to win the match or at least go up 2-1 but the ball went high and over the keeper and crossbar....had it been kept down....also, a free kick from 22 yards or so just missed being hit on the sweet spot and didn't challenge the keeper. both could've changed the game result, but who knows.
very fun game to watch no doubt! all the girls on NWN should be extremely proud of their play this year and in the cup and in this game in particular! I'm a NWN fan now and look to stay that way!
cross played better iin this match I thought than in the semi. there was more purpose and intent in their touches. whether over the top direct, flick ons with foot or head, nothing seemed willy nilly and was to space or a player. much better display of execution for them I thought. very well played
great officiating i think. interesting to sit in both fan sections for a while to hear perspective from both on certain calls or non calls.
just glad cps don't have whistles, the game would be stopped more than go'd

great match everyone! Well done.
