3-0 would be a wipe-out: I'm all for it, but I think it's extremely unlikely. Santa Clara's strategy against us has usually been to focus on defense, prodding us to take long outside shots (most of which are not on frame and the GK handles the rest), and hoping to score one goal or get a tie. Not a bad strategy for an underdog; it worked 2 years ago. I foresee a low-scoring game but would be delighted to be proved wrong, for if a lot of goals are scored we are going to be the ones scoring them.
