What happened with that no goal I don’t have the sound on

I think they ruled that they illegally knocked it out of the goalkeeper's hands. But it wasn't really clear.

The Zips made good use of their bench tonight.

 

On the offensive side, I want to salute FaFa (Farrell Ngongang) and Noa Testa.    

 

FaFa hustle and great pass resulted in a fine goal by Noa Testa.

 

Noa Testa was very active and quick and he created a lot of offense for the Zips.

 

However, my unsung hero for the night is freshman Cole Perez.    He came in at center back and really stabilized the back line.   Great clutch performance by a freshman.

 

Freshman Austin Thum also came in and played some very good minutes in place of Matt Dreas.

 

The coaching staff deserves credit for recognizing that some key veterans were not having effective nights.....and the coaching staff wisely brought in Cole, FaFa, Noa, Braxton , Leo , Austin and others.   This win would not have been possible without great contributions from freshmen and sophomores.
