Angel City FC capped its second South Bay Sports League Season with a 10th straight win, knocking off Long Beach 4-2. The playoffs schedule will be announced soon. Congrats to the squad for a clean sweep during regular season play.
In Angel City Soccer 7 v 7 League play both ACFC and the AC Allstars improved their chances of a playoffs berth with a pair of impressive wins, Angel City 8-1 over the Swamp Donkeys and the Allstars 8-3 over Real Talk. The wins improve both teams' hold on second place in their respective divisions with just two matches to go ... only the top two squads in each division advance to the Cup round.
David Woirhaye led the Sunday charge with four goals in each of the two matches, just one shy of the single day club record of nine. Luis Deveze notched a hat trick, Brandon Cole a brace, and Mike Gemballa, Matt Onheiber and Mark singles on the day.
League play goes on hiatus for few weeks now, due to field availability issues, with teams returning to action Nov. 13.
Angel City FC's LA Premier League squad next sees action this coming Saturday against Real Santa Monica at West LA College, with a 12 PM start.

Angel City wrap up
Despite two losses in ACSL action this past Sunday, both the AC Allstars and Angel City FC remain in contention for playoff spots in the EPL and La Liga.
The Allstars dropped a 3-0 decision to Malibu United, slipping to second place by three points, but one point above Real Talk and two above Esjberg FC with three regular season games to go. The top two teams in each division move on to the cup round.
Angel City FC, meanwhile, gave La Liga leaders -- the Old Boys -- a run for their money, narrowly losing 3-2 (goals by Mike Gemballa and Brandon Cole) after missing two breakaway opportunities.
While the Old Boys record moves to 3-0, Angel City is tied on points with That's What She Said and the Swamp Donkeys in second with a win and two losses, but they lead the lower pack by the slightest of goal differential margins.
Game 4 matches for both teams are next Sunday with 2 and 3 PM starts.
And in South Bay Sports League action, Angel City are now one win away from a perfect season, this week knocking off the Redondo Rangers 5-0. The season finale will be against Long Beach on Oct. 16 with a 9:45 am start. Playoffs will take place the following week with Angel City likely getting a bye through the first round.

Angel City enjoys weekend successes
Angel City enjoyed a variety of successes over play in three separate leagues this past weekend, racking up two wins and two hard-fought ties.
ACFC's LA Premier League squad kicked off the run with come-from-behind tie against reigning champs Valhalla 3-3 at Crossroads Saturday evening. Down 2-0 early in the first half, ACFC slotted one goal in before the half and came out on top in the second half, doubling Valhalla's tally 2-1 for the tie. The game was stopped before time due to a serious shoulder injury to Blake Nickle. The team wishes him a speedy recovery.
In Angel City Soccer League 7s action, both home squads staged come backs, with Angel City FC overcoming 2-0 and 4-2 deficits to win 5-4 against a fast and young That's What She Said Squad ... the win moves the team into second place in the La Liga Division behind the daunting Old Boys, who Angel City meet next week. Brandon Cole led the scoring with a well-earned hat-trick while a newly returned Kirby Adams and Mike Gemballa added singles.
In EPL action the AC Allstars maintained their unbeaten record with two last minute goals to tie Esjberg FC 3-3. Matt Onheiber, Rahoul Ghose and Mathieu struck home for the Allstars, who sit tied for the EPL lead with Malibu United, who they meet next week.
And finally in South Bay Sports League play, Angel City maintained their winning streak of eight straight games with a 5-0 drubbing of second-place Del Rey City SC. Only two games remain in the season with Angel City set to face the Redondo Rangers and Long Beach before the playoffs kick off. The win pretty much sealed Angel City's position as the league's points leader.
