Game Reports from Futsal - January 30, 2010
From: Mick DePace [mailto:mickd0221@comcast.net] Sent: Sunday, January 31, 2010 9:30 AMTo: Monheit, Michael; dap68@comcast.netSubject: RE: Game reports ACU1 and ACU2 Futsal
Mike and Dave,
Dave great report and assessment of the games, I do not have much to add I think Dave covered everything. First game we just didn’t mesh as a team (cycling and moving our feet), 2nd game Dave hit it right on the head, they played a very solid game for 30 minutes and then just lost there heads.
It was my pleasure to help out,
Mick

Great stuff. Thanks for the update. Just the sort of things we want to expand our horizons in the off season. Mick, Dave, thanks so much.

Coach Mick did a great job getting them set up and ready to play. The game was very close through the first half against a team that played in the Elite division last fall. Some sloppy defensive play led to some easy goals against us in the second half. Not sure what the final score was but it ended up as 7 or 8 -0. Sam had a solid effort in goal despite the score after a lengthy layoff.
I saw a great deal of hussle and determination. I saw some great individual efforts on the ball. We just had difficulty mustering any offense against a very solid team. We need to continue to work on playing our man and not chasing the ball. When confusion set in it was tough to get back and we left many 3 v 1 and 2 v 1 where FC took advantage. We need to use our treads and control loose balls instead of just kicking it away. We need to play the man, not the ball. We need to pass and MOVE to open areas and make runs to open space to receive passes.
It was clear our players in the second game, (ACU 2 v Upper Dublin United (Division 2 runner up)), learned some lessons watchng the first game. They could see how defensive breakdowns led to easy opportunities for the opponent. We clearly dominated the UD team for 30 of the 40 minutes. There was much better ball control, better communication and better movement off the ball in the second game. DJ had three great efforts resulting in goals and we led 2-0 at half and 3-0 midway through the second. Thatsaid, we then forgot to play defense and we forgot to use our treads. A turnover in our end (not using our tread to control a ball from our golaie) led to a turnover and quick score. Then two defensive breakdowns - we got caught up the court, all four players - led to two other goals before we regrouped and settled for a 3-3 tie. It was clear the UD team struggled with the speed and ball control needed in this game and we really outplayed them.
Both teams should be proud as they played two tough teams with many skilled players and held their own.
We will be working on the following Mon and Wed:
Defensive awareness, postioning
Transition from Def to Off and Off to Def
Ball control
Runs off the ball to set up scoring opportunities
Much thanks to Coach Mick for his help with both games.

Philadelphia Union Select Danny Mwanga First Overall
With the first overall selection in the 2010 MLS SuperDraft, Philadelphia Union selects…Danny Mwanga from Oregon State University! Mwanga, an 18 year old sophomore striker, comes to Philadelphia Union with an impressive track record in the Pac-10 conference, winning PAC-10 Freshman of the Year in 2008 and Pac-10 Player of the Year in 2009. In only his second season with OSU, Philadelphia Union’s first selection in the MLS SuperDraft led his conference in multiple offensive categories including goals scored (14), points per game (1.67), goals per game (0.78) and game-winning goals (5).
The 6-foot-2 forward’s college success shouldn’t be seen as much of a surprise after Mwanga scored an astonishing 53 goals in 9 games at Jefferson High School in North Portland. Impressively, Mwanga’s vision, dribbling and passing ability are thought to rival his scoring aptitude. While in high school, the striker also led Westside Metros International to two consecutive state championships, played with Real Salt Lake’s U18 squad in the World Youth Championships in Spain, and was named to the adidas ESP All-Star Team in 2007.
Mwanga moved to Portland four years ago as a 14-year-old, emigrating from the violence-torn Democratic Republic of Congo.
