Keith scores lone goal gives Bonte 1-0 win over BVB

The game last night was one of equals.  Most of the game was battled in the midfield, with the defense on both sides cleaning up anything that came through.  Scoring chances were there, but there were few obvious ones.  Between the bumps that made the ball bounce irregularly, and close marking, it was tough to create open plays, yet the game went well.

The first half began with an onslaught of Bonte attacks, shot after shot was saved by Goalie Jerry, or deflected by BVB’s defense.  BVB regrouped quickly, and took the battle to the midfield led by Conrad.  15 minutes into the half, Bonte’s efforts were rewarded by a goal from Keith, his first of a season, who took a shot from within the penalty area that got past Jerry.

As BVB began building some momentum in the midfield behind Scott, Alex and Conrad, opportunities arose.  One open opportunity was a solid run from Conrad who got past the Bonte Defense but whose shot was saved by Chris Haines.  This was the best opportunity for Bella Vista Beverage to tie the game.  At the end of the first half, a handball in the penalty box led to an indirect freekick.  Matt set Big Kev up, whose shot was fabulously saved by Jerry.

In the second half, opportunities were few, shots at goal were fewer, and shots on target… what shots on target?  Well, there was one from Big Kev that grazed the top right corner of the goalpost letting Sal off the hook.  The story of the day was solid defense on both sides - for Bonte, Nathan Avery curbed Conrad’s breakaway runs, Jared Kane was a fort, Leah held firm, and Keith ruled the skies..  and for BVB, Steph was a wall, and Bill seemed to have his foot everywhere the ball was.  Dave was a great ref, James ran lines, and the only card was a yellow for Heri’s inadvertent 50-50 ball challenge that injured Goalie Max.

Steph, BVB’s captain, concluded: “we’re solid, we just need to score.”
