Right before half. Long throw for BF into the box, flicked on, scramble, shot gets off but blocked by HC defender, was probably going in, eventually gets cleared and the HT whistle blows.
1-0 BF

Very scrappy first half. Neither team really able to posses the ball. HC resorting to long balls to pass up the midfield press. BF defending well, and creating most of their chances on set pieces. HC parents complaining about the ref but I think he’s called a good game.

Former BF head coach Jose Ferrand being inducted into the LHSAA Soccer hall of fame. Well deserved!

Great build up from BF. #4 sends a high cross into the box, #10 on the bounce, side volleys just wide.

HC parents calling for a yellow card every foul. It’s comical at this point.

Long throw for HC into the box, won at the front post and flicked in front of goal, scramble but eventually cleared.
BF the other way gets #7 through on goal but keeper just beats him to the ball

HC free kick from 30 out, sent into the box, BF GK comes out to claim it but doesn’t get there, headed onto goal but cleared off the line and cleared away. Moments later #2 for HC gets a yellow card.
1-0 BF

BF gets the ball out wide to #22 who does well to get down the flank, cuts onto his left and gets a cross into the box, far left side, BF players brings it down and takes a shot wide.

GOAL Holy Cross!
#2 with a great solo effort to dribble past a player down the line, takes another defender on, gets an inch of space to get a cross into the box, #34 is there to smash it in.

Final.
Holy Cross wins 2-1. A really unfortunate way to end the game. Have to feel for the BF players. Congrats to HC. This is their 5th state title in program history.
