North America Amateur Cup - Fourth Round Draw
Down to 16 teams. We luck out with another home match. We're going to be playing Tiburones United, from Carlsbad, CA. They're in the Gold Coast Amateur League, one tier above us. We beat another team from their division, the California Gold, earlier in the tournament.
We'll play this one in early September.
August 23rd, 2014
Wake Forest (6-4-6, 10th) vs Huntington Hammers (7-1-7, 11th)
Attendence: 205
Odds are basically even here, nice to not be some crazy 1-3 underdogs in league. Huntington have lost their last 5 matches in a row.
Starting Lineup
GK: Gyan
D: Campbell/Pickering/Galvis/Arroyo
DM: Tapia
M: Perkins/Shakespeare
AM: Davidson/Cooper
ST: Navarro
Some changes in the midfield. Rose and Williams are both fit again finally but tired. I hope to play them next match.
14': They ahve a corner, taken near post, and headed in. Ugh. 0-1
44': Campbell wins a ball on a tackle to start our offense, Davidson with a cross to the 18 yard line, Perkins heads it foward, Shakespeare volleys it, and its in! 1-1
46': Complete breakaway for Navarro, but instead of running at the keeper, he pulls up from 18 yards out, waits for the keeper to come out a bit, and shoots it right at him. Cooper takes the corner, Galvis is there and heads it.. .goal! 2-1
HALF: We get two quick scores to take the lead, glad to see that.
60': Lassiter in for Pickering, who is tired.
69': Lassiter picks up a small injury, but can continue playing.
81': Shakespeare starts our offense with an interception, ahead to Cooper, to Navarro, he holds it up at the top of the key, passes left to Davidson cutting towards the goal, Davidson fires and scores! 3-1
89': A yellow for Campbell
That's it! Good win, especially after giving up the opening goal.
