Des Moines Menace (1-8-7, 12th) at OKC Energy (4-5-7, 10th)

The worst moment of our season was, without a doubt, OKC Energy snatching a victory from us at the last minute. And it looked like that might happen again. After a scoreless first half in which I make a blunder because I forgot that offside rules still count in this game (I was so excited to pass to a guy right in front of the keeper!), Pennington is able to penetrate their oddly shaped defense and beat the keeper to give us the lead. Late in the 2nd half, their forward got into the penalty area and received a spectacular pass. He beats Pressley with the cannon shot. However, Pennington would not let it happen again. He penetrated the OKC defense again and fired a terrific shot past the Sweeper and the Keeper to win the game!

Final: Des Moines 2, OKC 1
