v JEVI win 5-3 penalty kicks

A great game in the midst of a south Florida lightning storm.  The first game of the day that began a little after 3pmm; our side had 9, theirs about 14.  Harry, Paul, Thomas, Dirk, Doug, Ray, Tim, Jeremy and Aldofo.  We did have Joel come for the last 20 minutes and Paul reinjured twice.  Before the rain delay we had a free kick about 5 yards outside of penalty box.  JEVI set up a two man wall.  Ray took the kick and Dirk saw a hole and called to Ray who put it hard in the far corner to bring us back level 1-1.  A fierce but sort lived storm blew right through the game and when lightning struck less than a mile away the game was stopped.  It started to pour and we took refuge in a pavilion with referee.   Sun came out 20 minutes later and we decided to play the second half.  Game ended in 1-1 tie.  Both teams had good opportunities to score and both keepers had incredible saves late in the game to take it to PK.  Incredible shoot out.  Both teams did not miss.  Only great save by Thomas on the fourth shooter and a put away on the fifth shot by Jeremy won the game.
