NM Rush Las Cruces 99’s A

Win

3-2

Akitas started slow but had a strong second half. Ref called 9 fouls on Akitas and none of LC team. Their two goals were off of a free kick and a penalty kick. We nearly got “home towned” by the Ref in this one.

Loss

Akitas looked like a different team in first half, didn’t play well at all. Second half was a little better but not that much. AZ team was good but Akitas helped them out with some not so good decisions.

Gave up too many opportunities on set plays (direct kicks). Close game, the Boca Juniors scored one goal off a kick-off just after the Akitas took the lead. The Akitas scored again just after to take the win.

Akitas

Aztecas 99 (El Paso)

Loss

The Sandia Cup website had the score 3-1 although I don’t recall us scoring. The Aztecas beat the Akitas 2-1 in Las Cruces, very good team. Their first score was on a direct kick (again).

EEP Barcelona (El Paso)

Akitas

Loss

3-2

Akitas were up 2-0 early and let this one go. A foul in the box for a PK (goal), a defensive mistake (goal) and a foul for a free kick (goal) cost us another chance to play the Axtecas in the Championship game. Akitas dominated early but multiple fouls caught up.
