Pitch : Drey, Maricopa, Simi Valley
Comments:
Kevin: I felt I gave up a horrible goal in the first half. And could say that the rest of the game I was trying to catch up.
Dominic: I felt I fought for and made a well defended goal. I gave up way to many throw ins. One goal was really good. The others two were just bad goalkeeping.
Simon: The first five minutes were all Dominic. After he scored his goal there was definitely a worried look on Kevin's face.

Comments:
Munir: I felt like Simon had good quick shots. I was not ready. I was not defending them. I did not feel the game was that bad. After Simon scored his third I sped it up.

Comments:
Kevin: I was surprise by the two goals. And very embarrassed by the second which I should have saved, but didn't. Munir played very well.
Munir: I felt like I played better in this game. It was even and we had a lot of possession. I made a couple of saves, that is what made the difference. At the end Kevin was coming on strong for the equalizer.
Simon: It was really a game of two halves. In the first it was all Munir. In the second Kevin was dominant but kept getting blocked by Munir defense.

Referee : Simon Hutchinson
Pitch : Drey, Maricopa, Simi Valley
Comments:
Kevin: The first half was mainly Adam. I had no offense to speak of. Defense was somewhat lacking. In the second half I had given up the ball in of his net. He gave me back the ball right in front of his goal. I scored. Unfortunately it was not the most satisfying goal. I had to score, I take no joy from winning from that goal. But I will take the win.
Adam: He had enough defense to stop me. One of my attempts on goal I thought it was perfect but he grabbed his goalkeeper and saved it.

Comments:
Jason: Best game I have played in Season 6. It was a very dubious penalty. I thought it was an even game.
Simon: I cannot believe that I had so many shots and it took a penalty for me to score. All credit to Jason for a very nice goal. It would appear that the roll of the ball was not with me in this game.
Adam: It was a well played game [applauding].
