You may have heard. We have a big game this weekend. We play
Our Kicks Don't Lie, who we don't know all that well but have every reason to respect. We have only played them once, and it was this season. It was a
strange game, if you recall. We gave up an early goal, and throughout the match gave up three more. But we played an open game and were rewarded with a number of goals. At times, the Our Kicks defense didn't have any shape. We won't see that again in the final - they've come too far and they have seen some of what we have to offer. They'll be much improved and gunning for a big win. And they can get it unless we play at the highest level.
Above all, I remember their ability to find that young, fast striker, who is deceptively fast and has great timing. He knows when to shoot and he can pretty much pick his spot. He scored three against us, he probably scored 3 or 4 last weekend (maybe more), and overall, my guess is he's among the top scorers in the whole league. And there may be others with skills as well. I have heard their goalie is pretty good, so we can't expect the same quality of opportunities this weekend that we had in the regular season. It will take higher quality build ups and goals to get it done. All in all, we need to be ready.
Take a look at the season had by Our Kicks:
