Amazing game played by both teams.

Conner scored first with 17:29 left in the 1st Half.

Ryle ties it up with 13:09 left in the 2nd Half.

Regulation ends tied 1-1.

No one scores in the 1st 5 minute OT.

No one scores in the 2nd 5 minute OT.

Ryle fails to score on their 1st PK shot, Conner fails on their 4th. 4-4 tie after the 1st round of PK's.

2nd round sees both teams make their 1st kicks, fail on the 2nd and make the 3rd.

Ryle makes their 4th kick, Conner has their 4th kicked blocked for the Ryle win but the Goalie was flagged for moving early and re-kick was issued and made by Conner to tie it again at 3-3.

Ryle's 5th kick was blocked, Conner's 5th kick is good and Conner advances to the 33 District Finals.

Was the goalie noticeably off the line? Usually they give you the first foot off the line.

Congrats to the Cougars!!!

I kept hearing that Ryle was one of the favorites in the 9th. Did they look past this match?

It's been a few years since the Raiders missed out on the Regional Tournament, that year also ended with a first round District loss in PK's at Boone County.

He was NOT. The Goalie dove to his left but actually blocked the ball with his shins as it was hit right up the middle.

]Was the goalie noticeably off the line[/b]? Usually they give you the first foot off the line.

There is no argument no one in the stadium had a better view then the AR. He is about 8-10 yards away straddling the goal line, perfect position. He has only two responsibilities during a PK attempt. First to see if the goalie moves forward before the ball is struck, second to see if the complete ball crosses the goal line. Not the most difficult responsibilities, especially if you have any level of experience. Given his position and limited responsibilities, I would lean towards saying he got the call correct.

^ good reminder. I have often been guilty of seeing better from the top of the stands than the guy on the pitch. Losing in PKs is one of the most bitter ways to lose an "overtime" game in sports. And, no, I haven't thought of a better way to do it.
