Closer. Only one goal that I utterly screwed up on (need to work on my clearance kicks), and I only allowed 1 more goal than the other keeper (unfortunately mine was 3 girl goals, 2 guy goals for 8, his was 1 girl goal, 3 guy goals for 5). I actually had some of what I would consider “good” saves, with one a hockey style split kick that barely deflected the ball wide into the post. I was extremely lucky on the first shot, however, as it went through my legs but rode the line long enough for me to fall backwards and throw it out. A different sequence had me going down to stop two kicks and the ball coming out towards the middle and I had to army crawl five feet to get to it before someone could pounce.
It really has been a promising development curve, and I’m definitely feeling more confident. Our team has been pretty ragtag however, our team captain has been down two weeks with a sprained ankle and only two of our four girls have ever showed up, so we’re undermanned pretty much all the time. Looking forward to seeing if we can win one soon, though.
Think I finally saved more than I allowed. You can follow the stats here, they usually update mid-week.
