Double Header Weekend Decided with a Double Dose of Disastrous Defeat

In what was billed as a two-fer weekend of soccer action, Cameron Road United fell twice on consecutive days and got knocked out of the Aztex Cup competition and fell further down the Division 2 table. The news off the pitch wasn’t any better as several players earned early vacations with injuries.

CRU 0 – Strikers 1

Trying to bounce back from last week’s disappointing loss, Cameron Road United again fell to a second half goal and were narrowly beaten by the Strikers 1-0 on Sunday. Another frustrating day at the office saw the tying goal disallowed, and several shots clank off the woodwork.

CRU 1 – Verity 2

It seems that even Mother Nature has conspired to keep Cameron Road United winless this season. A monsoon-like rainstorm quickly ended this week’s installment of “the most frustrating season ever” five minutes into the second half of what was looking like a promising performance.

CRU 1 – Deportivo 3

As the longest season in Cameron Road United history marches on, CRU again went down in flames for its fifth straight loss on the fall season. It seems as though the other teams in the division are passing around the secret formula for success against Cameron Road: score a few early goals and hang on…

CRU 1 – 3 Strikers

There is nothing like the smell of Onion Creek at 8 AM in the morning: Dew-kissed grass, freshly trimmed corner flags, Willis’ bucket, and the arousing scent of a tree line lingering on the edge of your every thought. This isn’t just another Sunday at the fields; this is where the Fall 2009 campaign for…

CRU 4 – Moneyland 2

Last game of the summer season and we responded with a nice late comeback win with loads of post-game beer options. This game had it all, early goals, late goals, comebacks, fights, you name it.  Since Moneyland didn’t show up last week for their game, we were a little worried that they would do the…

CRU 2 – Struggle FC 2

Dear constant reader of the most popular D2 AMSA blog in the city of Austin, after a week’s absence in the fine fine state of Mississippi, I am back to report on what was a valiant second half comeback yesterday against old nemesis Struggle FC. Although everyone could reach out an touch the win that…

CRU 2 – Verity 3

Thanks to Luke for this Game Report! WIth our captain, or should I say “The Chaptain”, being out for a few weeks due to a mecca to Mississippi and Mexico, I have been honored with the task of keeping this well-oiled blog flowing with the sweat, blood and ink of our team. The proverbial torch…

CRU 3 – Shiner 1

One a day where summer seemed to be on hold and the cool weather was a welcome surprise, Cameron Road bounced back from last week’s embarassing defeat to win our last game of the season against Shiner FC 3-1.  We controlled the game for the first 20 minutes or so, partly because Shiner started off…

CRU 1 – Strikers 0

If it’s not freezing out on the high plaines of NEMP, then you’ve got to deal with the 40 mph winds swirling around overhead. That was the case yesterday when Cameron Road once again rose to the occasion and scored a legitimate victory against the Strikers. We may lack the scoring touch of Celtic and…

CRU 1 – Verity 1

If anyone else was writing this game report it might be a little more upbeat from the start… It’s just that I don’t know whether to be happy about scoring our first goal of the season, or upset for missing a few other chances to win it at the end? Well, enough of my mental…
