In week 12, Sky Blue FC tied with the LA Sol who is ranked 1st in the league. The score was 0-0 and the field was very very terrible (very). we're talking puddles on the sidelines and slip and slides. The rain stopped throughout the game, and suprisingly, stopped Marta. Her speed could just not cope with the slippery grass, so she had to play a little slower and she slipped a couple times herself.

There were 4 great shot attempts in the game.

In the 14th minute, StrikerNatasha Kai, got past Sol defenders and hit a low soft shot past the hands of Sol keeper LeBlanc, but just hit the post!! darnn. The idea was good because you dont want to rip off a shot in conditions like these.

45th minutes, Brazilian Rosana tried to get a volley on goal, but her foot didn't come over the ball so it went high and out of bounds.

46th minute, Sky Blue defenders didn't communicate well enough and Aly Wagner, wide open noone on her, took a shot. Luckily for sbfc, branam was there to save it. It was an incredible save.

72nd minute, COLETTE MCCALLUM! kai was running up to shoot, but lost the ball because of a slide tackle. luckily, McCallum was there to save the loose ball, and ripped it from the top of the 18. The ball just went over the crossbar. Very thrilling.

The next SBFC game will be this WEDNESDAY! against the Chicago Red Stars, Kick off is at 7 i believe at Yurcak Field
