Second try at soccer - Still not coming out great

[theantiquetiger]

Last week, I shot my daughter's soccer game. I did some research and with some help here, I re-shot her game yesterday. Thy came out a lot better but still lacking.

I put the camera is AI Servo, set speed to 1000, ISO 800. The thing that was not working was my AF points. No point would select. I think I there is something I am missing on my camera

Here are the shots from last week I need some sports shot help

Here is this weeks

(For some reason, the EXIF info didn't load to Flickr, except the basic info, ISO, F-stop, etc)
I just went back and looked at the AF point, all the points were lit up.

Settings: 1/1000 ƒ/8 ISO 800 177 mm
