Pretty decent game, we went down 0 - 3 inside the first minute of the match via dumb game play. I stopped a goal by a fluke defensive air roll... I tried to do it again and hit nothing but air lol.
We started playing better and mounted better offence, got the other team nervous with shot after shot and when we finally started scoring IT WAS ON LIKE DONKEY KONG. Had it level with less than a minute to play, would have been epic to score 4 goals in a row to win it... alas inside the last 20 seconds, we launched a near successful attack, only just missed the goal - rebounds off the wall for an easy gather and open goal for them.
We nearly leveled it in the dying seconds, alas I aimed the shot too high and fluffed it up.
Nothing like smacking the ball from a fair distance away, then blocking someone from stopping it on the goal line 
Also did a goal in another match where I took it from the side wall, angled the shot and it curved in Akermanis style.
Of course I was like
But the replay didn't save

Haha fantastic matchmaking this season 
offended "diamond tournament" winner alert. Their partner left when they were still a chance of winning, but once they were gone we trounced them (semi finals).
Tournament winner tonight
It was easy going at first, but from the QF on it was a real dog fight. The final itself was basically 1st vs 4th in goals scored for the tournament and I was expecting us to get walloped. As with other rounds we were good at attacking, but in the final the team that we faced were very good at defending. The annoying thing was out of 9 scoring shots, they saved 6..... (while the others were wild shots), whereas they (early on) had 2 shots and scored from them (before our defence kicked into gear). Played much better in the second leg and the third was a tight affair up until the very end.
Rocket League blooper of the week (what-a-saving my own goal attempt)
