Men pull out a 3-2 win after going down 2-0 at halftime. Slow to close on a ranged shot off a corner for goal 1 and a dumb pk for goal 2. Pymm picked up what I believe was his fifth card which would suspend him for the next game.
Stanford goals on a pk from Pymm, a shot from Chow at distance on a volley, and finally Reilly off a corner.
I am a broken record on too many cards, too many loose goals and you live dangerously giving up the first goal. Or goals this game. But the offensive firepower is there, and they pulled this one out. Needed it badly.
On a side note, I am not a fan of the new challenge system. We actually had 2 successful challenges for pks in this one, but lots of challenges this year are Hail Marys or time outs. And it’s encouraging instigating and then flopping. See the Boes play in this one where Duke instigates contact, Boes lightly reacts and the Duke player goes down like he was shot. Use it or lose it; so why not challenge? Not working for me.
