I call for a third meeting between these two with special penalty shot rules.
This game is one of the best I have watched but it was clear to me that Estancia dominated and should have been the winnners. Poor ref judgment was made at the end which caused the mustangs second goal.
I would personally like to see a rematch…
One of the most competitive and well played games that I have had the pleasure of covering this season.
Each team played well, with many wonderful passing sequences and exciting runs to the net.
Estancia did an excellent job of putting constant pressure in the attacking third, especially in the second half.
Regardless of whether or not Costa Mesa was the receipient of too much extra time at the end, they deserve credit for continuing to play through to the very end.
All participants from this game should be proud for an excellent exhibition of soccer.
