FC Milwaukee Tournament: Record 2-0
The first weekend was a washout. Literally. The girls played 2 games, won them both and was already qualified for the final and the torunament was cancelled due to torrential rains.
Thanks to Sam (Amanda's dad) for these pictures.

The Palatine Celtic Cup: FC United 0 - ELA Premier 0
As the parents worked hard to figure out which pony-tail belonged to which girl, or confused Carly - Carolyn - Cailin - Callie - Kim -Katherine, the girls fought hard to a scoreless draw.

The Palatine Celtic Cup: Alliance FC 2 - FC United 0
United controlled much of the play in the midfield but couldn't score. We had one shot hit the cross-bar and a few other good chances. Alliance scored a first half goal on a perfect free kick and added a 2nd half goal to win 2-0.

The Palatine Celtic Cup: FC United 1 - Livonia Meteors Caves 0
The girls finished the tournament with a win. But their 1-1-1 record was not good enough to move on to the semi-finals.

FC United 1 - Strikers FV 95 Black 0
The season opened on a beautiful sunny day. The 1-0 victory was a great way to start the season..

FC United 2 - AJAX F.C. CHICAGO 1
A long drive, a beautiful sunny morning and a 2 - 1 victory for FC United!

FC United 2 - ECLIPSE SELECT EAST 0
The girls played a solid game at home. There was little work for our keepers. We scored one goal in the first half when Jackie snuck a shot past the keeper. In the second half Jordan recovered a ball in the box and easily beat the keeper fro a few yards out.

Sun 9/30/07
FC United 1 - H-F VALKYRIES RED 0
After a late start FC controlled much of the play. But they only managed one second half goal, on a long shot past a charging keeper by Callie.

Sun 10/14
GALAXY 94-95 BLUE 2 - FC United 0
Not much to say about this loss. Even the pictures are poor. I was only there for the second half, the lighting was poor and my focus was worse. :-(

Sun 10/21
FC United 1 - TCSA LADY BULLDOGS II 0
It was a sunny, but extemely windy, October afternoon. The girls won a close game by scoring with the wind at their backs in the first half and defending both the Lady Bulldogs and the wind in the second half.
The conditions were perfect for pictures and I think this is the best set of pictures of the whole year.

Sun 11/4
FC United 3 - Orland Park Blue Angels 0
On a cold day, the girls were hot and won 3 - 0. The last regular season game of the fall. Next weekend they off to North Carolina for a tournament.

CASL Tourney
CASL Tournament. Raleigh, NC
The Fall 2007 season culminated in a great trip to North Carolina. Results:

FC United 1 - Columbia United FC U13G Elite (SC) 1
FC United 3 - Miami Premier U-13 (FL) 0
Varder 95 (MI) 3 - FC United 0

They missed the championship game but the girls played good soccer and had a great time.
