Creighton v SLU Soccer


SLUBALLS

Recommended Posts

Who all is making out to this game tonight? Should be one hell of a matchup as Creighton is damn good and we beat them last year at their place 3-1. SLU needs this win for resume-building.

Good article on Creighton's season thus far:

Attended my first Bills soccer game in many a moon tonight. Nice game and fun to watch except for the horns that the kiddies were tooting all night. Thought that the Jays were spitting on our pitch too much during warmups, made me mad. Was a bit worried because they outnumbered us in Germans, 4 to 2 but our guys hustled and all was well. May have to take in another match before too long. Nice job by our goalie.

Shack had some tremendous saves in the second half. We could have had 2-3 more goals from Kristo, Adnan, or Sweetin in the second half if they had been able to convert. Adnan looked really good for the 15-20 minutes he was out there; he has some serious speed.

#2 of Creighton is an embarassment to the sport: http://www.gocreighton.com/ViewArticle.dbml?SPSID=89404&SPID=2518&DB_LANG=C&DB_OEM_ID=1000&ATCLID=208887260&Q_SEASON=2013

He was tackled by Marco near midfield in the first half. Gets up and throws the ball at Marco's face. Ref whistles and comes over to likely give him a yellow. Our Tyler approaches the kid to stand up for Marco and just as he steps up, the Creighton guy falls to the ground like he got punched. Ref looks at him and just shakes his head and gives him a yellow.

Oh, and then Pavilic (sp) takes out #2 about 10 minutes later forcing him out of the game. Unfortunantly he gets a yellow whcih sets him up for the other yellow and red card. I did not see the incident prior to the second yellow.

Does anyone have any comment on the red card? Was it legit?

The red card was thrown after Pavisic accumulated two yellows. A local soccer blogger tweeted this picture to illustrate the second foul: https://twitter.com/BrianStraus/status/385468544848113665/photo/1

Unfortunately, I did not get to go to the game so I probably should be commenting on it. I do hope the Athletic Department posted video of that Sweetin strike.

Thanks.

I've checked and there has not been any video posted yet. From all accounts it was a bullet so I'd love to see it.

I am alive and kicking.

Was in Tx visiting my Mom for the previous game and had 1st day of basketball tryouts last night so I had to miss. I was pissed when the schedule came out and we had Creighton on the same night as tryouts, there was just no way to change it. :(

What's with not getting a detailed report on the game?

Great to get that win ... now lets win the rest.
