Update: The goals have dried up for the first-place Sol, which has scored only once in its last three games after scoring five goals in its first three matches. The drought comes despite the presence of standout striker Marta in the lineup. Coach Abner Rogers said the problem has been trying to sort out when and where and how the Brazilian wants the ball. The Sol’s inability to hold onto the ball is also hampering its attack.
