That's great insight. Thank you for sharing that. So much on this forum gets blown out of proportion by people overreacting to something they see and then they respond agressively. It turns into a terrible back and forth and just escalates into a truly nasty exchange.
Thank you again for that. So this is a friendly "poke" back and forth. Friendly serious competition can be healthy. Isn't that part of the true spirit of competitive sports after all? It's not always something ugly and vicious.


Yes. And I meant to say two 07s came from FCV not 06s. It’s friendly but very competitive. I guarantee us 07s parents are laughing out loud at every poke back and forth. But don’t assume that means either side will flock to the other next year. Parents are going to do what they think is best for their DD. Let’s be honest, we can’t go wrong either way.

Using Youth Soccer Rankings:
https://youthsoccerrankings.us/team.html?teamId=1930976

The WAGs finals game has not been reported in Youth Soccer Rankings yet.

But for kicks:
Loudoun's 07 National rank is 50.
FCV's 07 National Rank is 684.

Ok, let’s try again.

FCV 07 Opponent National Rankings:
650. LTSC, FCV won 2-0
1539. Bethesda Academy White, FCV Won 5-0
877. Deep Run, FCV won 6-2
388. Quick Strike, Tied 2-2


Loudoun 07 opponents National Rankings:
43. Top Hat, Loudoun lost 1-0
33. Cincinnati, Loudoun won 2-0
873. Penne United, Loudoun won 5-0
677. Baltimore Celtic, Loudoun won 3-0
136. Keystone, Loudoun won 2-0

The second bracket at Discovery Cup is not the same as the top bracket at WAGS.

I know it stings for you. That’s karma coming back at you for being such a tool.

The score originally showed us 5-4...sounds like a shootout.


So it's a close game against 2 younger teams. Not quite the upset victory being touted.

WAGs website indicates 1-0 score.

When exactly did FCV 06 DA play Loudoun 06 ECNL? What in the world are you talking about?


WAGS tournament (U13 top flight)?

What kind of gaslighting is your coach doing ?

FCV opponent state ranks in Discovery Cup:
19
18
11
10

Loudoun opponent ranks in WAGS:
1
2
7
5




You do know those rankings are meaningless, don't you?
