1-1 with about 5 minutes to go. Our girl gets beat in the corner, their player sends a shot/pass towards my daughter, she goes to field it, but one of their players cuts in, beating our defender who is on the wrong side of her, and just gets a foot on the ball getting it just in side the post, we lose 2-1.
Daughter should have charged the ball, with just a couple steps forward being the difference. She has been told by her keeper coach to do this, but it had never bit her in the butt until Sunday. First thing she told the coaches after the game was that the goal was her fault and that she shouldn't have waited for it. Hopefully this will lead to improvement in the future. Sometimes you have to fail to improve.
