The frustration here was with the wind at your back and with eight players bunkering in it was really hard for us to break them down. That was when our composure needed to show.
It's all about chemistry. Our chemistry is starting to build. We are beginning to find out what is going to suit this team.
They made up for a very frustrating first half rather quickly. They responded to what we asked them to do.
We've been creating chances but haven't been finishing. It's such a tough district this year. It's going to be a fight to the end.
We have to learn to adjust to opposing teams tactics. They played very disciplined. Frustrate you get kind of down and then counterattack. Hoping that one kick will change the game.
All that practice finally paid off.
It's going to take us three or four weeks to learn how to play under pressure. Even if you have to wait till the last few minutes if you keep passing it around and don't give it away to easily then things will finally open up. When you start to relax and keep possession and wait for your opportunities goals will come.
A lot of the players that will start this season were the practice players last year. They were very instrumental in what was accomplished last season and now is their time to shine.
They have big shoes to fill. As the defending state champions there are a lot of expectations on them. Defending the state title is not our focus. We want to develop chemistry, play well as a team and learn to compete. All that is going to prepare us for the toughest district in the state of Texas.
