GAME 10 HIGHLIGHTS

Outlaws - Lightning 1 - 2

Kickoff time: 7:30 P.M. at Ed Fountain.
Wheather conditions: Nice.

Lightning for the first time since the season started takes the lead on the table by themselves running away by two points from Hat Tricks which today they tied their game to Fireballs in a well fought match that end up in a draw. Within 5 minutes from time Fireballs took the lead at 3-2. Hat Tricks fought back and within 1 minute left had a break through in the center. A very questionable call by the official save Hat Tricks the lost. The Hat Trick striker break away and he got tripped by a Fireballs defender but the ball went to another striker that at the moment he had his shot the referee blew the whistle not giving the advantage and he scored. The goal dissallowed, at least for just a few seconds, with the official awardeding a free kick, but just before Hat Tricks could kick it he changed his mind and awarded the call instead, creating controversy and obsiouly a bad decision in both circumstances. 1. One for not having give the advantage at first when he could have and 2. by reversing his call and awarding the goal anyway. Two mistakes costly especially to Fireballs.
Lightning took advantage of the tie of their co-leader and went on to win 2-1 to Outlaws. Lightning had many chances to go ahead earlier but could not finish and several time Outlaws break through Lightning's defense forcing Erik to come out far from the penalty box to make some brilliant clearings. Davey scored on the 23' with a shot from the left. At 1-0 at half the reds were reminded of several mistakes that happened during the half and then continued the same rythm in the second. Continuous attacks were stopped by Outlaws and a shot from Davey went inches from the post and other from Guy, Tj and Kerry too wick and central for easy saves by the goal keeper. Within five minutes from time Lightning from a corner kick by Tj scored the second when Kerry Heads it in. Goalie changed and while all this happen and Erik was putting his field shirt a mistake by the defense lead to a kick on goal when Jason entered for Erik had the ball in his hand for a second and slipped away to go and run for the save but just inches inside the goal line and the official awarded the goal. That went very fast and so the continuation of the rest of the game that lasted couple of more minutes.

Lightning now have to focus to the next most important game of the season when they will encounter Hat Tricks on Saturday where they will need just a tie to remain First place and Winner of their Division and to keep intact the record undefeated streak since October 1st and 12 straight.
