Sodium stops Magic at Crossfire

The lady warriors showed what they were made of this morning as they beat the Magic from Eugene FC in the Crossfire opener. Right out of the gate Sodium administered the "Score early and often" tactic as Hannah Lautenbach chipped one in from the 18 yard mark for the early lead. Eugene wouldn't give up as they squeaked one past Camille Fairbairn to tie the score mid-way through the second half. As seasoned veterans always do, Sodium kept there cool and the ball in the Magic end. Pounding and pounding the goal box with shot after shot. On two separate occasions the Magic goalie was completely out of position but despite Sodium throwing the kitchen sink at it, the ball would not go in. With just 4 minutes left in the game Sodium drove deep down the right side. The ball was dished to Taylor Moscoe who placed a perfect cross to a diving Hannah Lautenbach for her second score and the game winner!! The girls looked crisp and are playing really well. Elianna Beard made her debut at midfield and did a great job.
