Sodium blasts through Semi's

Sodium opened up the OPL State Cup Semi's in typical Sodium Style with a 5-0 trouncing of the 2010 State Cup runner up ESUFC Arsenal.
Right out of the gate Sodium applied pressure to the Arsenal goal. Willy in the 18 yard box juggled the ball over the defenders to Dani in the 6 where she alertly headed it in! The pressure never let up as Sodium came storming back. Jadyn tippy toed past the mids and found Easton flying in from the left side. She dropped a pretty pass right to her feet and Easton ripped a blast passed the diving ESUFC keeper for the second. Just before half Dani worked her magic as she split the Arsenal defense and found herself one-on-one with the keeper. Well, we all know happens when Dani is one-on-one with the keeper, Sodium up 3-0 at half.
The second half began just as first had ended except that Sodium had a whole bunch of new faces. This second wave is just as dangerous as the first and the accelerator never left the floor. On a corner kick Emmy lofted a deflection to the far post where McKayla was posted and headed it in! With minutes left in the match Mac brought the ball up the right side and spied Emmy streaking up the left unmarked. Mac ripped a beautiful long pass that Emmy chased down and drove into the box. Her shot found the inside of the far post and gave Sodium the final 5-0 win!!
