It's something we've gone up and down with so it was nice to see we could finish in the first half.
I thought she (Bauer) did a real good job. She made some saves where she tipped the ball to herself. To their credit, I thought they were much improved as a team.
I thought our team did a good job of coming back after losing in the morning. The coaches told the team we were the little fish in the big sea.
No one person is to blame for something like that. We gave up as corner kick and we were not able to clear the ball. That kind of misfortune can take the fire out of you a little bit. But I think we showed if we fix a few things, we can play with the big teams.
We had smart decision-making in the first half and played pretty soccer. We came out with confidence.
Allie is a great take-on artist. She is extremely crafty with the ball, although we're looking for her to be more aggressive and look to shoot more. Kim has been the most improved player in practice. She is doing everything a forward needs to do.
We needed to capitalize on our chances and we didn't finish. They finished their chances and that was the difference in the game. I guess that's what the game is all about.
In our defense we want everyone to help each other out. We have some experience back there. It's just a matter of how long it takes for that group to get comfortable together.
Scoring first was big because we've struggled with that against good teams. But you've always got to be cautious with Rapids. They've got some speed and you can never count them out.
