Almost makes me feel bad about complaining about the drive to Chinn Chapel...almost.

I blame the coach, why would he allow his team to continue to score 21 goals? If you look at their got soccer account you will see they have a history of running up 10-0 scores on team.
Can you imagine the sideline cheering for all 21 goals?

In addition, by playing in this league when the QT comes around they shouldn’t be ranked any lower than 30. That may pay dividends as well, instead of being ranked 50 something.
But 21-0, come on, you can’t tell me an experienced coach doesn’t know how to dial it back and still keep it challenging for his team. Character definitely plays into this score. Who knows, maybe they winning coach is worried about finishing second in the group.

There are plenty of ways, for example scoring from headers only, shots from 30 yards out only, shoot with weaker foot, etc etc. If you look at their got soccer history you will see 2 other games scored 10-0.

Re: And it begins...
I think a couple of your options are a little difficult (or illegal) for an 09 girl’s team (headers only and goals from 30 yards out), but your point is dead on. We have gone a man down when up really big (even 2 down, once). Playing without a center mid allows the other team to hold possession a little better and forces your team to be more creative linking up on attack.
We have pulled the striker and forced the goals to come from runs on the wings which helps the center mid to work on taking the space and finding the outlet. One time we pulled both outside backs and made the outside mids play as wing backs. (And then rotated subs as they ran their shorts off trying to transition)
You can get creative and Dribble your team to work outside their comfort zone. You have to find some sort of balance in order for it to be a productive game for the winning side in a blowout. Otherwise all you do is learn bad habits.
I don’t like to put restrictions on the players in situations like these (don’t do this, or only score like that) because I want them to still feel the game and problem solve naturally. I do want to make it more challenging in the most natural way possible.

Thanks for responding and I do like your suggestions for managing teams when you're out matching the opponent. Very creative
