Our mistakes again proved costly.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kelseyville grabbed a brief 1-0 lead in the 29<sup>th<\/sup> minute on a goal by Jair Inostroza Carrillo, only to immediately squander that lead because of a mistake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe opened the scoring in the 29<sup>th<\/sup> minute with a beautiful through ball by Jake Smart,\u201d White said. \u201cJair Inostroza Carrillo used his speed to beat the defensive line and put us in front. However, our lead was short-lived because on one of the very next plays, we had a miscommunication on our back line, and we gave up an own goal to even the score at 1.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kelseyville quickly rallied to regain the lead, Diego Rico feeding Cameron Smith for the go-ahead goal and a 2-1 halftime lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Knights had a penalty-kick opportunity early in the second half but couldn\u2019t convert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnd that missed chance proved costly in the end,\u201d White said. \u201cWe got a little complacent and a little tired, and we were not ready for the push at the end by Fort Bragg in the 75<sup>th<\/sup> minute.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kelseyville keeper Diego Serrato turned away the initial attack by the Timberwolves, and a second Fort Bragg shot was denied by the Kelseyville defense as well. A third shot during the same series found its mark and tied the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe made a nice push at the end but couldn\u2019t get it (the lead) back,\u201d White said. \u201cIf we eliminate our miscues, we win this game comfortably, which is what makes this game so frustrating. We will keep our heads up. In the end, we tied, which isn\u2019t the end of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kelseyville is 1-0-1 in league and 6-3-2 overall.
