Strikers may had best opportunity in regulation with a break away but kick went straight to goalie. Arsenal had numerous corner kicks but could not convert. Surf looks like the team to beat.

Great to see a few teams in the Semi-Finals that play possession soccer with a purpose. Not always easy for parents to believe in the process and development of intelligent soccer players but here you have it with a few of these sides being some of the best at doing it and being competitive at the same time. Best of luck!

Hey Tech - DD's did great dominated their spaces, thanks for asking.

We put a lot of pressure on their Mids and back line - but they countered very Well, strong challenges.

If the regular season game is any indication of how these two teams will play - Its Going to be the match to watch expect fireworks. - I just hope both teams play at their peaks -because it will be fun game to watch
 
I think in the beginning of the year we all knew Surf, Arsenal, Beach and Strikers would be very good teams, but the development I saw in West Coast and Legends was impressive. Props to their players and coaches...Swanson might be the best coach in SoCal at developing players. Also wanted to give well deserved props to the players and coach at Westside Breakers. Impressive how their team turned their season around and did so well despite rotating players at goalie. Congrats to Surf and Arsenal for making the final. Surf can play possession soccer and also out physical you as well. Best team we played all year. Looking forward to academy next year and watching how the player movement plays out.

Surf vs Arsenal in a very fitting finals. These are the #1 and #2 ranked teams in CAS G04.

Prediction: Surf wins 1-0

Their last match up in CRL was steel sharpening steel. Arsenal kept Surf honest all game with the longball and forcing them to reset play in their defensive third. 1st half was 50-50, and 2nd half was 60-40 Surf as they did a better job of holding the ball and making Arsenal chase.

In previous years this match up would be Surf's style versus Arsenal's talent but this Surf squad is definitely different and like @splinter called it, Surf can play you both ways. It's going to be a good one for sure, on the pitch and the sidelines!

The one stat that I find crazy is that Surf has not given up a single goal this Tournament and only one team scored on them in all of CRL (LAGSB in the last game).

If there is one team that has a chance to beat Surf it is Arsenal--should be a great one next week!
 
Surf is definitely the favorite going into this, no doubt, but Arsenal does have some Gamers who can make things happen quickly. It's going to be fun
