opusnbill Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Free kicks were awarded because #15 and #11 for Kilgore kept MAULING #23 for Lindale the entire game. I saw #23 get undercut or literally pushed off the ball by one, two or sometimes three Kilgore defenders at least a dozen times that were not called. Conversly, Lindale defenders did the same and the calls were made in the first half. Kilgore generated little or no offensive threats in the second half so no calls were necessary. The Kilgore keeper handled the ball outside the box and it was not called. Numerous accidental handballs were let go, as they should have been. The law calls it deliberatly handling the ball. Lindale midfield and defense matched the level of physical play that Kilgore established in the first half, and Kilgore was awarded more free kicks in the first half than Lindale, and the game was played mostly in the Lindale defensive end in the first half. The referee took control and started making more calls in the 2nd half to try and gain control of the game. I thought they should have blown the whistle more often...against both teams, especially in the 2nd half. But to call it horrible just shows your favoritism to one team. Generally speaking, Lindale upped their intensity in the 2nd half and Kilgore responded with even more physical play and that was the reason for the calls (and cards). I can say that I am an impartial observer because I do not have children that play for any East Texas high school, I did not coach any current player in any High School, and do not work for any school district, and I am a USSF referee, Grade 8 with hundreds of games of experience. The only observation about the referees in this match is that they let the play go too long before taking control of the play. And the AR on the Kilgore side blew two (2) calls on possession. Thats it. Very fair observation, though I think you are mistaken that most of the 1st half was played on Lindale's end. I recall it being fairly even during the 1st half. Not that it matters, as the 2nd half was completely dominated by Lindale. It was certainly a physical game, and Lindale's yellow was in retaliation for the fouling by Kilgore. Both of Kilgore's yellows were direct fouls, and may have been both on Lindale's CM, who might as well have had a saddle all night long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opusnbill Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 The refs in that game were horrible! They were going to keep giving Lindale free kicks until they scored. For some reason Kilgore changed their game plan vs the last 2 games. The have a sophomore that they were using in defense last night. They had moved her up to offensive mid in the previous 2 games and she really made a difference. You touched on good point though. Kilgore needs a much better offensive plan if they are going to move forward. I know Coach Farmer is up to the challenge and they have a lot of talent coming up. Also they will hopefully have one of their starting forwards back next year who has been out with an injury since preseason. Congrats on the win Lindale. Ole! Thanks for the congrats and good luck next year. As for the game plan, I would not want to speak for K's coach, but it seemed pretty apparent that the decision was made to play a very defensive match and hope for a counter-attack goal. Obviously, it didn't happen and the physical play cost Kilgore. That said, if they weren't so physical, they may very well have gotten scored on (and probably would have) any way. The referee was not horrible and did not effect the outcome of the game. The better team won last night. Again, good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toohottohandle Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 wow, thats some trick by Coach Lawless, especially since he's been with his boys team all day and have been on their way to Marshall getting ready to play tonight.

It is really funny to me how people come on here and say things about offsides when most people dont have a clue to recognizing an offsides. The girl that scored the first goal for mp was not offsides. The henderson sweeper was right there when the shot was taken. When the ball was played she was playn a deep sweep an the mp girl ran by her and she chased at a really good pursuit angle. It was just a great finish and a really good play. Henderson played really good and so did mp. It is a shame that people can't just say good job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JvilleTribe Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 how were they?think nac girls will be able to handle them? Umm.. just know that they have such good control and movement. Almost everything is one-touch. They also have the communication that Nac has, which is key. Know that #24 has a big throw-in, I'm talkin she throws from the line and it lands in front of the goal and someone could just lay it in. They don't do much shooting from far away, most of it is quick passes to someone close, then they shoot. They are very quick also. Make sure the midfield gets back quick enough to play defense. Also, when the ball does get down to their defense, very rarely do you see them boot it up the field. Like the rest of the team, they pass it over to other defenders if they're in trouble, who pass it to the midfield. They're calm with the ball, so you have to pressure them big time. I would love to see Nac win this one considering Midway hasn't had any goals scored on them in district! Where is being played? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiger19 Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 typical MP team. no dicipline Actually it looked like MP had alot of discipline. They fought hard and when things got heated they made sure they defended themselves. Nice to see the ref not hand out a bunch of cards for heat of the moment issues. Both teams had their pushes and after the ball hits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lindale play Woodrow Wilson, time and place TBA It is amazing to me that you say that MP players were getting out of hand without mentioning the things that occurred that they walked away from. There were numerous times that Lindale players pushed MP players after the whistle and never did they retaliate. One MP player was even kicked while sitting on the ground by a Lindale player. Dont come on here and tell a one sided lie!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chebeto Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 typical MP team. no dicipline I really don't have a clue what your motivation for your posting is. I will tell you that in saying MP has no discipline you are full of it. You have no idea what you are talking about! Since Mayfield has been in charge there MP is 107-22-4 with a trip to the state tournament. The last two years they were eliminated in the ployoffs by a team that won the region and the other lost in the regional final. One loss came in double overtime and the other in a shootout. I guarantee you Lindale will say that MP was the best team they have played this year! A program is not this successful without any discipline. Anyone who has a clue about what it takes to have a successful program or has guided a succeessful program will tell you discipline is a major part of success. MP's kids are not perfect, but whose are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
