No joy in ACFC land

Angel City sputtered with a trio of 7s losses Saturday at the Santa Monica Airport, despite strong lineups in all three matches.

ACFC started the day with a 6-2 loss to Westside Property in the Socrates Division and dropped to 1-1-3.

Then a 3-0-0 Angel City FC faced off against Sudamerica in a battle for top spot in the Santiago Division.  The squad started strong with a brace from David  Woirhaye and a single from Craig Blois, ending the first half up 3-1.  Then the game went a bit pear-shaped with defensive errors costing the team five unanswered goals despite the goaltending prowess of Logan Redlin between the posts. Angel City FC drop to 3-0-1 and second place going into the second half of the season.

And the AC Allstars, pairing off against bottom-seeded Santorino Division squad McDermott, faced an uphill battle after dropping an early first half goal. Strong goalkeeping from the McDermott keeper, and a complete lack of finishing (including a last minute penalty kick miss) left the Allstars scoreless on the day, leaving the team 1-1-3 at the season midpoint and in need of a win after three straight losses.

As of Sunday the SMASL had not posted the times for next weeks matches.  Info will be available on the ACFC site once the schedule is released.
