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.
