October 9th-Sporting played well, and was so close to scoring on several plays it was hard to believe the ball didn't go in. As always, the solid defense of Daniella, Rebecca, Katie and Celine made it difficult for Quicksilver to get the ball close for a good shot, and the keepers stopped the one or two reasonable shot attempts. Quicksilver played better than our first match against them, with former Sporting player Andrea G. doing a good job on sweeper for Quicksilver in the first half. Sporting had their chances though. Rebecca lofted a beautiful shot from about 22 yards that bounced off the upper right corner of the goal. In the second half, Sophie had two chances from in front of the goal after beating the defense. One was stopped by a diving keeper, and the next one beat the keeper but banged off the left upright. In the end, nothing would go in and Sporting ran out of time.
