ACFC takes third straight win with 6-2 Inter drubbing

A quartet of goals by striker Ben O'Meara bolstered ACFC to its third straight win Monday night as the blues destroyed Inter 6-2.

Neither shoddy officiating nor the questionable quality of the John Ferraro pitch could keep Angel City down as the squad played calm, cool and collected against an undermanned Inter, in a game where the away side could easily have notched double digit goals.

O'Meara -- voted MVP of the match -- opened the ACFC account at the 19-minute mark off a pass from Brandon Cole, and added a second nine minutes later after a strong run down the wing by a newly revitalized Ben Kull.

David Woirhaye put ACFC up by three just before the half, converting a pass from David Alarcon.

The second half was littered with questionable calls by the referee, with Inter getting numerous free kicks outside the ACFC box for dives and often non-existent contact. One such kick resulted in an Inter goal at the 67-minute mark. However, when O'Meara was hauled down on the opposite side of the pitch right in front of the ref, no such call materialized. After being yellow-carded for dissent, O'Meara got the best possible revenge, notching his third and fourth strikes at the 70 and 71 minute-marks off passes from Cole and Woirhaye.

Inter converted a second ridiculous free kick outside the box at 78 minutes (a call which saw two more ACFC yellow cards for dissent). But Woirhaye capped the win minutes later, capitalizing on a counterattack by Kull and Cole.

The game saw a strong back line and solid midfield back-checking restricting Inter to seven shots over the 90 minutes.

ACFC's record now sits at 3 wins and a loss, with a +10 GD. The squad play Hollywood United next Monday at John Ferraro with an 7 PM kickoff.
