Game Comments: 

Palo Alto SC remains as one of two teams who continue to be unbeaten in the PSL as they downed SSFAC 3-1 at Terra Bay Park. South City nearly struck for an opening goal just 30 seconds into the match when a ball played across the front of the goal was just out of the reach for Ryan Wiegmann. As things settled down, PASC began to put pressure on SSF as both teams tried to find a way to hit the net. PASC finally got the goal at 34 minutes to take a 1-0 lead which they would bring into halftime. SSF came out hard in half number 2, and pushed forward early to get the equalizer. Bobby Quinlan, Blair Smith, Leandro Monteiro, Andrew Pantano & Omar Perez-Diaz worked hard in the midfield trying to filter balls to the forward line. Unfortunately, PASC wound up with a counter attack opportunity in the 67th minute and converted the chance for a 2-0 lead. PASC didn't have many chances at net as the defense lead by Scott Ellis, Harry Andreades, Jim Burke, Howard Choy, & Thoeun Huy-Chan did a stellar job of closing down the challenges, but on this day, the effort of the defense was lead by Ian Preikschat who moved over from his outside position to fill in as sweeper. His play was flawless as he calmly directed the team and settled down the play, often starting the transition game for SSF. PASC struck for their final goal late in the match, which was replied to by Antony Reyes less than one minute later when he finish a ball inside the six yard box to put SSF on the board. SSFAC now prepares for Sunnyvale United in what will be a big match next week.
