 Hello and welcome to the coaches corner. I'm Joe Wamba joined now with head coach of the men's soccer team Andrew Bordelon and coach Last week tough result with Messiah Messiah is a pretty good team and then another good team with Alvernio on Saturday The two-to-one finish In really tough windy conditions on senior day on Saturday Yeah, you know Messiah came in on Wednesday Very very talented team, you know always highly ranked And you can see why I Thought that we played pretty well as a unit They had a lot of chances, but you know, we did a good job of Denying those chances and then you know, we had a chance to tie it one-one with ten minutes left As we're throwing a lot of numbers forward really going for the result Just missed our chance. Yep, and then Saturday came around and You know, it's I think that's that's a tough one You know, you give a team to the team that takes two half chances, you know on set pieces You know, we were we were in there half the whole time. We're creating a lot of chances We were really playing pretty well, especially in the second half and you know, we just keep We didn't take our chances again And they did today and that was the difference because again, we we had all to play and But we weren't able to capitalize And it was almost like in the Messiah game, you guys played defense really well You know, you're not gonna get so many chances on your attacking third in that Messiah game And then you get a lot of chances in the attacking third in the Alvernia game Put those games together and you've got a really solid performance. They were solid performances as they were Yeah, yeah, yeah, no there was I mean obviously I think again There's just one of those things where we have just let downs where we shut off here and there at times But overall the performances weren't Weren't that bad. No, there were there were positives to take from it and now we've got two tough games coming up in In this weekend if we like I said, we've got to win both of them to give ourselves a chance And it's entirely possible. You guys are playing your brand of soccer You just got to put it together for the full 90. Absolutely. Yeah, no I mean this I think one of our our promises is we have been very unpredictable You know, we we've played some very good matches Then we've played some good matches where we didn't get the results and then we've played some, you know Just where we we didn't show up on that day I Think we fixed they're not showing up part. We we've tended to show up as of late So now we just need to make sure that we put the ball in the back of the net and don't have as many Just shut offs mentally right and working on those things if you those balls will fall your way In and go into the net for you if you keep on playing that way, right? Yeah, you know a lot of the times you create your own luck So we you know, we want to press the issue. We want to create some chances I thought we created a lot of chances this last game and Hopefully, you know this week will put those chances away, right and both those games that you have this week are on the road Yes, so we wish you luck and we'll be watching those games As the the season comes around to the last week. All right. Thank you so much. He's Andrew Bordelon. I'm Joe Wamba And this has been the coaches corner
