It can only be described as a rout. Costa Rica’s women’s All Star soccer team met a female team from Augustine College of Rock Island, Illinois, in an exhibition match as a precurser to the Pekin Olympics. The match in Alajuela might be best termed an appetizer, since the Ticas devoured their adversaries, 6-1.
Cristin Granados scored a senational three goals in 90 minutes while Yuliana Rodriguez, Wendy Acosta and Laura Sanchez each scored one. Keri Hess was the lone scorer for the North Americans.
But the euphoria of the Ticas is tempered somewhat by the announcement that former star Shirley Cruz, a professional in Europe, will not be playing with her ex-teammates in the runup to the Olympics because of contractual obligations with the French club, Olympique of Lyons. The San Jose resident was contracted by the French team last year.
