Good test for our side. Finishing seems to have been a problem for several years no?
How are we ranked 25? This is just wrong!
1-0 is the final. Rutgers guaranteed at least 5th in the Big ten with 21 points. Rutgers can pass Minnesota and Northwestern if they lose or tie on the road tonight against Nebraska and Michigan St. respectively. Rutgers can tie Penn state if it loses at Wisconsin tonight.
If we lose to PSU in round one, are we in danger of not making the NCAA?
LaPlant has pressed hard with success in the last three games. In the Indiana game she was hands down our best forward. Very dangerous. In the 2nd half of the Michigan game, as a result of giving up the middle of the field, we were under constant pressure. Gave up some quality chances--one a wide open look at the goal, from in close, sent over the cross bar. We were also forced to defend several corners.What many seem to have missed is the reemergence , as in 2015, of forwards pressuring hard the other teams back line and running at the goalie . It caused several missed hits and this has been lacking.
I attribute in part to the energy expended by Dana Goldstein ( a defender 3 weeks ago ) It seems contagious as Colby and Alaysia played , perhaps, their best game in that capacity. We didnt , i think, see much of Laplant and Hendley who dont attack that as hard as those three.
I think the girls repeatedly stripped the ball and while nearly giving up a goal on 2 missed assignments they were totally dominent
Having Michigan passing side to side , outside the formed umbrella, without penetration shoud not be construed as mounting a solid attack.
From 26 minute mark in the first half the ball almost never left the Michigan zone. There were multiple solid shots at goal that did not connect
i think something can be done when every player on the team repeatedly fires just high. Back to basics?
