Apropos I just read the following quote of an Italian coach on a USCHO soccer thread.

"One night, I went to a bar, I was with a woman. We talked all night. We laughed, we flirted, I paid for several drinks of hers.

At around 5:00 AM, a guy came in, grabbed her by the arm and took her to the bathroom. He made love to her and she left with him. That doesn't matter though because I had most of the possession on the night."

That's one of most amazing things I've ever read.

ETA: Turns out it was Chilean soccer coach Jorge Sampaoli, though.

Oops.

I guess I just instinctively reimagined it as Italian.  Either that or I was mixing up "Sampaoli" with "Sampdoria."

The difference between puck control,  good stick work and a score.

A soccer thread on USCHO??

A soccer thread on USCHO??

It mostly exists for people to complain that they hate soccer.

Then again, see if you relate to this.

"One night, I went to a bar. I ordered a beer and nursed it all night. Across the room was this guy who started talking with a woman. They talked all night. They flirted. He paid for several of her drinks.

Ending: #1: Around 5:00 AM, I went over to her and grabbed her by the arm. She slapped me and told me, "Get lost, creep." Then she took the guy by the arm, took him into the bathroom. They made love and then they left together.

Ending: #2: Around 5:00 AM, I looked for her. They'd already left at 3:00 and were at his place making love.
 

In either case, in your experience which is more common: having most possession and then scoring or having little possession and then scoring?
