The first payoff game finds us again on turf at Genesse Upper. It's a perfect night for a kick around against our old foes Ram Big Horn.
Racer X takes the lead early on a poor back pass by a Ram defender. With a burst of speed Mark is able to get onto the end of the misplaced ball putting it past the keeper. The Big Hornys tie it up minutes later when Ref decides not to whistle offsides against 3 players. The fast break goal makes it one - one.
Tico gives us the lead again on a pass/shot from Chris but the joy of the lead is short lived as the Ram Striker blasts a powerful arcing shot into the far net. The 1/2 ends 2-2.
The 2nd half sees Ram Big Horn take the lead on what could be considered the header of the year. A corner ball is swung in near post which the Big Horn Striker meets near post and directs perfectly into the corner.
Randy is able to pull us even off a perfect pass from Mark. The shot hits the keeper hands but finds it's way to the back of the net. Racer X then takes the lead off a throw in the is headed from Randy to Chris to Marks feet and into the back of the net. With 10 minutes left it looks like Racer X's game to lose.
With 2 minutes left Racer X gets caught with not enough guys back and the game is now even again. But as time expires Racer X makes one more push. Lances works the ball from the left side of the field to the right where he finds Chris wide open. He takes 2 touches and strikes....Game over.
Racer X is now in position to win the League Title.
