The U17 girls select team lost its bid for the soccer provincials after dropping the Coastal Cup semi-final 4-0 to the visiting Vancouver United Wolfpack at Brennan Park Sunday afternoon.
The game was closer than the final score indicates, although the 蜜桃视频appteam was in tough from the start.聽
The Vancouver side, the winners from the top Lower Mainland division, seemed in control early, although the 蜜桃视频appbackline players were able to break up most of the Vancouver attack.
The visitors tallied their first goal midway through the half. 蜜桃视频apprallied as the half went on but could never quite break through the Wolfpack defence.
蜜桃视频appplayers were able to push the ball upfield, with much of the offence generated off the boots of Tanya Fearon and Kyley Rosser on the right wing.聽
However, Vancouver took advantage of breaks to score more goals.
Even with the loss, 蜜桃视频appcoach Brent Williston was proud of his players.
鈥淲e ran into some stiff competition today,鈥� he said. 鈥滻t wasn鈥檛 for lack of effort.鈥�
