Speaking of Goalkeepers, FIU switched Keepers for the 2nd half but still couldn't thwart the Zips attack. Not sure what the FIU GK was doing so far up the pitch late in the game when Stefan kicked the ball past him, then blew by him and out ran the defenders to put the ball in the open goal for our 5th tally. Love watching the FIU fans who can be seen in the camera putting their hands on their heads in shock and awe. 😃
I agree with Jared…our Zips response to every FIU goal was huge. Yeah, I’d prefer not giving up 3 goals. But scoring after each and every one was huge. Way to keep our heads in the game and not let adversity get to us.
GO ZIPS!!!
