I don't believe they have a number 14... I think you mean 26 or 16?

One sided game not sure what you were watching Eagles converted there opportunities on two mistakes by IE Surf in first half and IE Surf had several more opportunities in second half. Goals win opportunities don't Eagles get win. I was happy with the IE Surf performance vs a top academy team like the Eagles. IMO a great game very close that could of gone either way. Eagles 04 are class

Sorry, it was #26 with the two laser beam goals from distance. The game was one sided in the first half. More athleticism, more size, better movement off the ball. But yes, IE Surf did have a few chances - as did Eagles. IE Surf GK saved two goals in first half.

Tango looking forward to the match up next week. We rolled you at Man City and don't think it will be that easy again. Winner of this game should be #1 or #2 in your Socal.

I was an observer. Not with either team in that game.

IE Surf controlled the forwards of the Eagles very well that they were not able to score but left the midfield
IE Surf controlled the forwards of the Eagles very well that they were not able to score goals but left the midfielders open for the missed opportunities in the box and converted them to goals. That's the difference with this team, anybody can score even the defenders. IE Surf had some missed opportunities too and played well during the 2nd half but their center forward did not have the support needed to penetrate the Eagle's defense.
Something to watch out by the LA Galaxy SD, they have to bring their "A" game this weekend to beat them. Eagles have since change since their match at Manchester City.

Most anticipated game was a bust for the Eagles, no match. Least to say Galaxy had 3 injured players.

Not to pick hairs but LAGSD was missing "4" players who are out with injuries. (2 stem from those beautiful Fullerton fields). "3" of the 4 are regular starters.

No excuses though. Everyone is banged up around this time of year. Eagles played a very good 1st half. They changed keepers in 2nd half and that's when things went south. I'm sure they will bring it next week. It's only a 2 1/2 hour car ride for their "home" game. You have to love the Coast soccer league.

It's also a game changer when one of the refs seem to be chatty with a particular team as shown on their officiating. Though, I believe Eagles coach should weed out weak players especially the 2nd half keeper. Not to be vile but these were the players that cost them this game. Congratulations to LAGSD though. They were able to capitalize on Eagles' achilles heel.

Were there other "weak" players or just the keeper? Keepers do affect a large part of the game flow

I guess coaches call the shots during a game and by this time, if you want to win games then play your best players as long as they are able to. Eagles played every single player in their line up during the entire game and they paid the price. Keeper or any other player, coach should have made the adjustment ASAP rather than wait for more mishap to happen.

Not just the keeper but some mids and defenders turned out to be mere spectators and didn't provide the support that their forwrds badly needed. Reserves didn't help and instead did a lot of damage, too. LAGSD immediately took notice of that and took advantage. LAGSD's passing was awesome while Eagles' passing was full of suckage. Sad to see their coach wasn't able to implement the same on his team. He just let some of his players to try to score on their own instead of playing as a team.

A few weeks ago somebody comment that it was only pure luck that Eagles was no. 1 in this bracket. I did not believed it during that time but now I agree. It's sad to see coaches struggling with what play to use during this point of the tournament.

I don't think it was luck... the players must've given up as the goals kept coming in, but if the goalie was at fault, the coach should know what to do. By removing the couple of players that usually cause damage and don't connect, score, or help the team in anyway, the coach probably won't feel obligated to play every player he probably doesn't want to play. It wouldn't be the first time I've seen a team with these problems. I saw I wanna say 13 solid players on the team and the rest should not be there. Better to have less players than reserves who cause damage.

I don't think Eagles can bring anything in their arsenal to change next week's outcome against LA Galaxy. Win or lose Galaxy has the championship in the bag. No need to prove anything. Eagles lost today seal their 2nd place. Better luck next time.

Going into league Galaxy was without a doubt the team to beat and they have showed it all season. They have great athletes all over the field and have the ability to slow the game down which not many teams can do at this age. Should be interesting what the coaches of both teams decide to do the weekend before Surf Thanksgiving when the games really matter.
