I only saw the second half and Ireland was controlling the play. OSSA rarely made it past half and their defense could not handle Ireland. I don't know if they had given up by this point but it was very one sided.

I turned up to watch expecting a close game based on ossa beating Ireland 3-0 and Ireland supposedly playing badly recently. From what I saw Ireland do not look too to be playing too badly. I thought the ossa gk was outstanding and if it were not for her then the scoreline could have been a lot different!

I don't remember either Ireland gk making a save of any note?! I did notice that Ireland had only 13 players available so that meant a lot of playing time for those girls. I think that is a good thing for players who love playing though.

All in all I felt it was a very one sided game as the scoreline reflects.

Final Standing GU 16

FC Portland Navy 22pts
THUSC Ireland 17 pts
OSSA Blue 17 pts
ESUFC Sunderland 16 pts
FC Willamette Possession 15 pts
THUSC Sapphire 15 Pts
Pacfic FC Synergy 6 pts
FC Portland White 3 pts

Will this be the final standings after state cup? I think not! Can't wait for the games to be played out. My opinion... Ireland will win bracket #1 and Navy will win bracket #2. Bracket #3 and #4 are too close to call.

Can't wait to see who will be in the final four.

I didn't see this game. It is my experience though that when there is alot of pressure on the defensive line, the break down is mostly at the midfield. I have seen this OSSA team play and have been consistently impressed with the skill of their starting defenders. Seems like something was up this weekend. I don't think OSSA had given up 5 goals the entire winter league. Any info available? Not to negate Irelands win of course. They clearly had some solid play going on. Definitely good timing to get some players back.

Don't know about OSSA past performance, never seen them play before. The midfield was not generating much pressure on Ireland which didn't help. The Ireland forwards were beating the OSSA defenders one on one and just running by them. The Ireland kid with the headband was having a field day running by them.

not entirely correct

In all fairness to OSSA's defenders, that statement is true for only the last 10 minutes of the game, after an injury on the line pulled out one of OSSA's core defenders. At that point, Ireland's headband kid took total advantage of the forced substitution. Good for her! It was a thing of beauty. The last three goals were scored in those ending minutes due to the mismatch.

No argument if you mean the second half when you say "ending minutes".

Havoc 2

Havoc moves on to play OSSA Blue because PDX Navy allowed Havoc to score a goal. That goal is the tie-breaker.
