Summerside Community Soccer Club

This week in soccer - Southwest Fire clashed with Ilderton Ignite at Meadowcreek Field in Ilderton Tuesday night, and it was another interesting one, where it seemed it would be a romp - 4-nil at the half, then Fire rallied with three goals in the second, yet still fell to a pretty hefty defeat in the end anyway 8-3 for Ilderton. 

Had the Fire defense eliminated shots on goal, it's likely there would have been 4 less soft goals, 2 in each half on Zakk and Robert. They must have faced about 20 shots on or toward goal, and it's only a matter of numbers, if you give up that many shots, there's going to be a couple of mis-handled ones. However, if the keepers make those easier saves, this game is a lot tighter at 4-3 too. 

Daniel stood out big time, as Miles did much of the work in the first half working the ball forward, Daniel took on the same role in the second, when they switched spots. Daniel worked well with Brooks, Amer and Jamaal moving forward and creating chances. In fact he racked up a hat-trick, moving into a three-way tie for team scoring lead with Miles and Devin, all at 4 goals each.
