reat win by FC Kansas City vs Seattle Reign last night; FCKC plays an attractive possession -style game and take their chances with quick counterattacking strikes using their speedy striker. Lauren Cheney showed why she is world class in the midfield, bringing calm and order to the game whenever she got the ball on her foot. Strong and confident with the ball, she plays connecting passes with superb touch. Scott was great in the holding midfield role, winning possession and stopping the Reign counterattacks countless times. The outside wingers and backs are very active and provide support with confidence and speed. The center backs are strong, fast reliable in possession and get the attack moving on both sides of the field. This is a great team for young soccer players to watch to see an excellent team-concept being worked under game conditions. The Blues play at a very high level, with skill, and not the usual American athletic long-ball style.
