The midfielders for portland are #3, #4, #5, and #6 and sometimes #17

 

I was told that Portland scored the winning goal off of a 40 yard free kick that Groft hit that went upper 90 and the keeper could only hit it up into the cross bar. Portland scored off the rebound. I could be wrong. Confirmation?

 

 

Yes that is how it happened, Macon County's other goalie is 6'5. Have to question why he wasnt in their. I have heard he is pretty good for somebody as big as he is.

I was able to make the Portland v. Merryl Hyde game tonight and it was a good one.

 

Portland won tonight 1-0 but the score doesn't tell the story. The shot count was 18-3 in favor of portland. Even with gusting winds blowing right at one of the goals, portland got 9 shots on goal each half. This demonstrates their ability to adjust and still be successful. They had problems finishing but it will come.

 

Good job Portland. Good luck to Merryl Hyde as the season progresses

Many district games have been played so any opinions on how it will end up?

Station Camp i do believe is the only team that hasnt played any district games at this point, the standings are:

 

Portland 3-0 3-1

Merrol Hyde 2-1 2-1

White House 1-0-1 3-2-2

Mt. Juliet Christian 1-1-1 3-1-2

Friendship Christian 0-1 1-3-1

Greenbrier 0-2 0-3-1

Macon Co. 0-2 1-2

Big district game tonight was played at MJCA. They played portland. Portland was up 2-1 with about 2 minutes left in the game and MJCA put one in to tie it

 

A few comments. The were terrible for both teams. And usually its not so bad as long as the calls are consistent but they weren't. It was clearly visible from the stands and the players and coaches were not happy either

 

MJCA played very hard and earned the tie. They had some chances to actually win the game but came up short. They were celebrating the well-earned tie. As they should have. good game by MJCA

 

Portland played hard as well. They were inconsistent but when they were on, MJCA didn't have an answer. They just couldn't play the full 80. Their defense didn't play very well. Maybe the worst performance of the season for them. They had some great moments too, however.

 

In the end, the score reflected the game. Both teams went at it and their was no clear cut winner. MJCA missed some big oppurtunities and Portland couldn't play a full game. Great game to watch

MJCA played excellent, and hard, in the last 5-10 minutes of the game. If Portland finished like they should in the first, and second half, the game would've easily been theirs, and theirs to lose. Their defense played well, and yes they did have a few bad moments, but mostly they played very well and organized. #2 and 15 are by far the base of their defense.

I understand what your saying, but some of the calls the Refs didnt make were or could have been game changing calls.

Portland should have put the game away earlier but MJCA just didn't give up and caught Portland on their heels at the end of the game win Portland was smelling victory. We can play the full 80 mins, we just can't finish.
