Sol to Meet Sky Blue FC Saturday in WPS Final
Perhaps the most unlikely of opponents. And Sky Blue have never beaten the Sol.
Quotable:
"We play for each other and that's the way we play," said Sky Blue's Natasha Kai. "When we win for each other it's the best feeling. It's one of the best feelings I've had, we're the fourth seed and now were in the championship. Athletica is a tremendous team and we went in this game giving them everything we got and it payed off. The best team won tonight."
Tweeted the Sol's Aly Wagner at about 8:30 p.m.: It shall be done:)
Game on?
