So.. pretend I don't know anything about soccer and tell me who was at fault for letting that goal score? I see the goalie griping at her teammates but she let it sail right past her without making a play. Isn't she the only one who can actually use her hands?

That whole sequence looked like a cluster for Arkansas. In soccer the goalie is going to ***** at someone no matter what but it looks like she was expecting one of them to get in front of it and I guess they thought the same of her. Poor communication

Not that I’m an expert on our team, but if you ask me before the season if she was on our team, I wouldn’t have known. I had to look her up since she’s been integral this season. I know her name now as well as a lot of other people!

I know it’s still early but I’m excited about this team and this program James Armstrong et al have put together.

The girl on the back post is supposed to head that ball away. The GK has to cover the State player in the box (looks like Laposser) who would have headed it into the center of the goal if it hadn't gone over her head.

She was out almost all of last season with a knee injury. I didn't realize how good she was until this year. BTW, we've got a couple of starters who have missed the last few games this year too. The depth on this team is just insane.

Technically it was the keeper’s fault. Her responsibility is the ball, the defender’s responsibility is marking up to stop the other players from shooting the ball. Once the keeper didn’t make the play in the air, the girl on the back post should have cleared since she was in position. She just thought it was going wide of the post.
