First, they got to the Semi Final, and so they deserve some commendation.
Anyone who watched the game would know that Columbia was the far far better team.
“The players tried” against Columbia, yes, they tried woefully.
Not necessarily their fault, the manager should be responsible for getting the team to perform.
The manager appeared to instruct the team, not to make any serious ambition at scoring or holding the ball… they should all just be chaotic and interestingly that earned the team a draw at final time.
For the penalty shootout, the manager again failed the team woefully. He had no plan for who should take the penalty after the first five had been taken. Doing such, it appeared outright, those girls were too young, to be given such a senseless and enormous responsibility and I hope it doesn’t crush their heart.
The flamingoes keeper for the penalty shootout could also have done far better. It appeared the coach believed that in the tournament, that was her only purpose. The manager should have ensured she was at least average. She had two outstanding penalty saves in the tournament, but then, the ones she didn’t even try for yesterday, appeared easier to keep out.
If we commend the performance, without a bit of being critical, we would keep getting terrible results from our football teams.
Congratulations to the girls, I hope they keep training to get better and hope they can good football teams to help improve their abilities.
The manager, who I hold as the culprit for yesterday eyesore performance; I hope he realizes his errors too, get back to the drawing board, and begin to initiate plans to get us the cup in the next tournament.
