MSoc: STANFORD-59ers. Conference Opener - washingtonismoney - 10-04-2015

A big one. Sad to be missing Morris.

Re: MSoc: STANFORD-59ers. Conference Opener - washingtonismoney - 10-04-2015

Stanford centerback dallies on the ball, gets it stripped, 59er nearly scores. Not auspicious.

Re: MSoc: STANFORD-59ers. Conference Opener - washingtonismoney - 10-04-2015

Stanford and 59ers exchange promising opportunities. Each team lets the chance go wasted.

Re: MSoc: STANFORD-59ers. Conference Opener - washingtonismoney - 10-04-2015

Stanford with a PK opportunity ...

Re: MSoc: STANFORD-59ers. Conference Opener - washingtonismoney - 10-04-2015

... Brandon Vincent buries it. 1-0 Stanford.

Re: MSoc: STANFORD-59ers. Conference Opener - washingtonismoney - 10-04-2015

Foster Langsdorf buries a shot, and #3 Stanford is up 2-0. The team is clicking.

Apparently Jeremy Gunn spent time chatting with Antonio Conte (former Juventus, current Italy manager) a couple summers ago when Juve visited. Hopefully Gunn avoided picking up any tips from Klinsmann when he visited.

Thanks for the updates, WIM.

I'm afraid I don't get the Klinsman reference?

Those of you that used the link for last night, and who do not have P12, should be able to keep using it for all sports.

He's the US national team coach -- the team trained at Stanford before the 2014 World Cup. He is a dim, dim man.

Re: MSoc: STANFORD-59ers. Conference Opener - washingtonismoney - 10-04-2015

Unfortunately the 59ers clawed back a goal. 2-1.

Amir Bashti is on to do interesting things. I suspect he'll fare well because the 59ers are not all that physical.

Re: MSoc: STANFORD-59ers. Conference Opener - washingtonismoney - 10-04-2015

halftime now, 2-1. Stanford's superior finishing the difference.

Re: MSoc: STANFORD-59ers. Conference Opener - DenverCard - 10-04-2015

Anyone else think that there was no penalty for which Cal was given a penalty kick?  The Cal player simply looked frustrated at missing the ball, absent any indignation that he had been fouled?

At this point irrelevant, but I still think it was a make-up call for what was a well-deserved penalty kick awarded to Stanford.

Re: MSoc: STANFORD-59ers. Conference Opener - washingtonismoney - 10-04-2015

Stanford closes out the game, 2-1. A bit low-IQ in the final two minutes, forgoing opportunities to milk the clock (instead, trying not-that-likely passes aimed at scoring... fine ideas in an ordinary situation, not-so-great when already ahead and seeking to finish the game.)

Re: MSoc: STANFORD-59ers. Conference Opener - washingtonismoney - 10-04-2015

Based just on what happened on-field, Stanford was only OK; perhaps even worse than the 59ers. But considering the long layoff and lack of Morris, the performance was pretty solid.

The camera angle wasn't great but I didn't think it was a foul at all.  The Cal player tried to reach the ball and wasn't even close.  He then fell/flopped awkwardly with minor body to body contact.  Should never have been called.  Glad Stanford was able to pull it out.  it's always tough on the road, especially in a rivalry game.
