I don't post much but watched the game and had some thoughts...Agree with all the above. Bad non calls, could easily have been 2 PKs.
For a 0-0 game it was fun to watch. Both teams played excellent soccer and neither team dominated for too long. Rutgers had some long stretches where they dominated including at the very end.
Ali was a terror for their defense. She just charges players and takes the ball away making them look silly. And if a long ball comes at her she will possess it. But she has trouble getting a shot off for some reason, she has nifty moves so she'll figure it out. And sometimes she is far ahead of any help so maybe she needs to wait.
Colby had some dangerous shots including one off the cross bar. And Nomeme had a beautiful long run but it petered out. A lot of one on one play all around though.
Penn state had some of the best chances. Our defense was good against some good pretty offense, Shaffer (?) was very good. But we had trouble on some set pieces. Not sure Murphy had her best night (for her lofty standards) but still keep a clean sheet and PSU did put a lot of pressure on.
Tie PSU and beat OSU and things are back on track.
It was a very, very exciting game.There needs to be more Carli Lloyd type players that are scoring threats in order to increase fan interest in soccer.Too many games where there are no goals in mens and womens soccer.
Lousy reffing cost us wins at both Iowa & Penn State.Great job by the ladies getting the tie. Just wish they had played to this level the past 2 weekends (other than Wiscy). Damn shame we left a lot of points on the field. Gotta win out from here! 9 points or bust!
(I kid, I kid...)
They didn't miss it. They just didn't call it.I don't know how on earth they missed the handball. It was plain as day, and right out in the open.
