Speaker 1: the week. Starting off at Trinity Health Hartford Athletic two
Speaker 1: nil winners over Oakland Roots and that gets us to
Speaker 1: match number one. Speaking of Tampa Bay, they went to
Speaker 1: Patriots Point to take on the Charleston Battery. Here's your
Speaker 1: highlights courtesy of our friends at the USL Championship, ESPN
Speaker 1: Plus and YouTube.
Speaker 2: There is the whistle and we are underway tonight between
Speaker 2: the Tampa Bay rowdies and the Charleston Battery. Chapman trying
Speaker 2: to move it out wide. It's one David Torres, oh
Speaker 2: by himself. Torres trying to go for the cheeky chip
Speaker 2: and over the bar. Here this is rolled forward the
Speaker 2: return ball. It's Marcanic. Every time Marcanic gets on the
Speaker 2: ball around the eighteen yard box thinking about the record
Speaker 2: he could break. Tonight it's moved out wide and now
Speaker 2: cut back, chipped up back post.
Speaker 3: Torres stores.
Speaker 4: One. David Torres opens the scoring five minutes in one
Speaker 4: nail Battery.
Speaker 5: The Battery needed a response after a poor loss last week.
Speaker 5: They wanted to be able to come out in the
Speaker 5: first five minutes and be the aggressors, and they get
Speaker 5: their reward. Keep an eye on David Torres. Is the
Speaker 5: second balls picked up because the Routies are playing with
Speaker 5: three in the back.
Speaker 3: When Dobby Torres pulls.
Speaker 2: Off, they are out for the season for their respective sides.
Speaker 2: Here's Nate Worth now for Tampa Bay and Bisegbers.
Speaker 3: You can connect with Cal Jennings this to flex forward.
Speaker 2: Jennings is onto it and he fires the shot well wide.
Speaker 5: He went for all power there. Highly recommend Charleston and Atriots.
Speaker 5: Point is place that you must go. Chris Allen wins
Speaker 5: it back. Allen's striding forward, setting it ahead for empty
Speaker 5: Myers kick save.
Speaker 2: Jordan Farr making himself big at that near post. Jested
Speaker 2: there in the corner. Segber's looking to get it out.
Speaker 2: Lewis Hilton picks it up, he can.
Speaker 3: Hit from distance.
Speaker 2: Big save from guinnwest Hartiaga picks it up again, rolling
Speaker 2: it into the middle. It's cleared away Flinchel center midfielder
Speaker 2: and Peerman called Aaron Molloy one of the best players,
Speaker 2: if not the best player in the USL Championship. As
Speaker 2: it's turned over and moved out wide, Rivera coming forward,
Speaker 2: Rivera cutting it in Rivera say by grenwist A couple
Speaker 2: of big stops now by Grenwis, and Rivera knows that was.
Speaker 3: A golden chance.
Speaker 2: Oh Meyers merchanic awaiting in the middle, Heronriguez staying with it.
Speaker 2: Cut back for Torres, Torres, the low cross in Marchanick.
Speaker 3: Marchanick saved.
Speaker 5: Oh my goodness, be able to get the ball collected
Speaker 5: and be able to run at the outside backs of
Speaker 5: Tampa Bay.
Speaker 3: Battery win it back immediately off of the throwing.
Speaker 2: Also Man just three losses in their last fourteen hearing
Speaker 2: some good form.
Speaker 3: Right now, it comes into the.
Speaker 4: Middle, Markanick for history. I think Markannick is made his
Speaker 4: mark this single season goal scoring record of the US
Speaker 4: sold Championship.
Speaker 5: And just look what it means to Nick Marcan, a
Speaker 5: player that's been unstoppable all season, and the way he
Speaker 5: takes this goal is indicative of how he's been scoring.
Speaker 3: Astute movement.
Speaker 5: MD Myers wins the battle physically, but Manchoma as he
Speaker 5: tries to clear it, puts it right into the pat
Speaker 5: Now merchanic.
Speaker 2: Right now that aggregate score is exactly even at four
Speaker 2: to four, a little bit more of the play.
Speaker 3: For than just the three points in the second half.
Speaker 2: How about another shot from outside the area and it
Speaker 2: was Markanick looking to add to his record again, serves
Speaker 2: it in Leland Archer, the header away as far as
Speaker 2: Lewis Hilton and over the bar. No deflection on it.
Speaker 2: Goal kick tonight Benner sure Rodriguez delivers back posts far
Speaker 2: came to claimant and now he makes another save on
Speaker 2: the shot from Dos Santos.
Speaker 5: You play a teammate under pressure, he comes back to you.
Speaker 5: You're under pressure, and all of a sudden they go
Speaker 5: from a free kick and they're opposing half to all
Speaker 5: the way back to their goalkeeper and putting themselves under
Speaker 5: pressure again to lose the ball.
Speaker 2: They do lose it again empty Meers Meyers drys to
Speaker 2: square it. It's Marchanic, Marchanic scars. It's the Nick Marchanic show.
Speaker 4: A record breaking night and a praise on Top three now.
Speaker 5: This goal is indicative of how the Battery have operated
Speaker 5: all season. They work together to win the ball back
Speaker 5: and then from their Mt. Myers, the unsung hero up top,
Speaker 5: does ever so well to be able to.
Speaker 3: Find Nick Marchanic.
Speaker 5: Everything he touches turns to gold for the twenty seventh
Speaker 5: time this season. Marchanic just gives himself a little bit
Speaker 5: of room confidently, strikes into the far posts low and hard,
Speaker 5: goes between the legs of the as he reaches and
Speaker 5: it's all Smasser Ben Pierman give a shout. Tampa's playing
Speaker 5: into three five to two now.
Speaker 2: So Santo Is trying to turn the corner, gets the
Speaker 2: crossaway and the Meyers saved quick strike. Now it's Torres wide.
Speaker 2: Here's Joshua Perez the delivery coming in, nodded for it
Speaker 2: by Doherty. And now Colt Jennings with the outside of
Speaker 2: his foot but taken by Grenwitz. Charlson has been efficient
Speaker 2: with their opportunities, held on his sixty percent of the
Speaker 2: ball as well.
Speaker 3: Sadie loves to run at defenders.
Speaker 2: They'll do that here Pritz Sadi with the curling effort
Speaker 2: just wide and eyes for that far post.
Speaker 5: Could be a big reason the Battery have hopes to
Speaker 5: be able to make a deep run in the playoffs
Speaker 5: this season.
Speaker 3: It's played out wide for Aaron Gihan.
Speaker 2: Stays in play, Griner side to stay on his line
Speaker 2: played out to midfield.
Speaker 3: Molloy also back to back USL Championship first team performances
Speaker 3: of the last two seasons.
Speaker 2: Perez lasers this end and it's one goal back for
Speaker 2: Tampa Bay. Freddie Kleman on the board for the Rowdies
Speaker 2: his first goal of the season.
Speaker 5: It's three to one center backers center forward. On a
Speaker 5: night when nothing is going well for the attacking players,
Speaker 5: leave it to a center back to score a spectacular goal.
Speaker 5: His momentum is going away, so watch all he's able
Speaker 5: to get his hips around the pace comes from the cross.
Speaker 2: The baccil to spring Prince Sadie forward Jackson Conway.
Speaker 3: There's also Nick Markanick, but Sadie took.
Speaker 5: It himsel Ah, you can't look off Marchanics again.
Speaker 3: And that is full time.
Speaker 2: Three goals and three points for the Charleston Battery.
Speaker 1: As nay, it's a history for Nick Mercanic. We'll get
Speaker 1: into that as the show rolls on North Carolina FC.
Speaker 1: How about North Carolina f C two nil winners over
Speaker 1: Indy eleven at wake med Also Rhode Island FC continuing
Speaker 1: their winning ways to taking the draws turning them into wins.
Speaker 1: Still north of the playoff bar. We'll get into standings
Speaker 1: coming up in just a little bit. Two to one
Speaker 1: win at burn Over FC, Tulsa, Al Paso and Colorado
Speaker 1: Springs at Southwest University Park. A one to one draw
Speaker 1: Goli Straw Monterey Bay in Orange County at Cardinal and
Speaker 1: that gets us to our second match of the week
Speaker 1: out West Vegas Lights at Cashman hosting Sacramento Republic. Here's
Speaker 1: your highlights, once again courtesy of our friends at the
Speaker 1: USL Championship ESPN Plus and YouTube.
Speaker 2: There's the whistle and we are underway tonight from Cashman
Speaker 2: Field in Las Vegas.
Speaker 3: It's the Las Vegas.
Speaker 2: Lights named upfield again and it runs out of play.
Speaker 3: One thing Las Vegas has got used to this year
Speaker 3: is playing in close games. Their last eight games and
Speaker 3: twenty one.
Speaker 2: Of their twenty overall this year have been played within
Speaker 2: a one goal margin or a draw. They have really
Speaker 2: grinded out some results this year, and they're right there
Speaker 2: in the thick of the playoff rates looking to make
Speaker 2: the playoffs for the first time.
Speaker 3: As this is slipped in behind Phillips in on goal,
Speaker 3: Raiko Rose are in in a save and Phillips the
Speaker 3: follow eron Phillips op.
Speaker 2: It's the scoring for Sacramento Republic.
Speaker 3: He stayed with it.
Speaker 5: And the opser Phillips and within nine minutes the board
Speaker 5: makes the coach look like a genius. The weight on
Speaker 5: this pass from Ciceroni is inch perfect.
Speaker 3: Rosa in it.
Speaker 5: Cannot really enjoy his game. He needs to get on
Speaker 5: the ball, so he draws Felipe towards him.
Speaker 3: That's a center midfielder.
Speaker 5: If anything, that little passing is just causing the defender
Speaker 5: two or three extra sprints.
Speaker 3: Comes in for Bennett.
Speaker 4: Cory Bennett his twelfth goal this season and an equalizer
Speaker 4: for the Lights.
Speaker 3: This'll show you.
Speaker 5: After some slow moving passes, they kick it up to
Speaker 5: a twelve real quick, and this is an inch perfect.
Speaker 3: Cross that is such a good ball.
Speaker 5: It goes over Jared Timmer, who's the center back in
Speaker 5: the middle. That means Lee Desmond needs to be over
Speaker 5: closer to apply some pressure. But that's the difference Corey
Speaker 5: Bennett can make finding those pockets of space and then
Speaker 5: from there he times that leap where he's able to
Speaker 5: meet it at his apex.
Speaker 3: And he's a.
Speaker 2: Vitziello sends it long downfields into the minute plus stoppage
Speaker 2: time in the first half. Second ball picked up shot
Speaker 2: comes on and say by a Rosarina.
Speaker 3: Oh smart leaves this defender in the dust.
Speaker 2: Smart coming forward, it's Tory Bennett and it's wide kiss
Speaker 2: off the post and a goal kick coming inches away.
Speaker 5: She's gonna have their time on the ball to try
Speaker 5: to be able to build up and right now for Sacramento,
Speaker 5: their content, but they certainly won't be happy with this.
Speaker 5: You can defend well, but you've got to be able
Speaker 5: to get on the ball and be able to start
Speaker 5: to create some opportunities and even get some rest and
Speaker 5: a reprieve from all this defending no.
Speaker 2: Shot so far in the second half for Sacramento.
Speaker 3: Here's a Sante.
Speaker 2: Wide Smart, Now a Sante in Gondo just over the
Speaker 2: bar onto the roof of the net seen and Gondo
Speaker 2: score from outside the area this year, and now a
Speaker 2: substitution coming. This may be more just man management because
Speaker 2: of the busy week than anything, but Jacker replaced plays
Speaker 2: three quarters of this game. It's Harvey Neville who just
Speaker 2: came in on loan from Portland.
Speaker 3: Nike swoosh on it those okay god official.
Speaker 2: Brand Official, I'm gona kick taken short and then Pinzone's
Speaker 2: cross dealt with Ciceroni trying to run away, but more
Speaker 2: Black Shirts converging and the lights went it back. You're
Speaker 2: not letting Sacramento breathe right now. Benzone chance did it
Speaker 2: from distance. It was a heavy first touch. Noel couldn't
Speaker 2: get the shot away. Smart for Sante on the turn,
Speaker 2: Sean Smart Smart, Layson on pit Zone scars.
Speaker 4: Too unanswered goals for the Las Vegas Lights.
Speaker 3: It's two to one.
Speaker 5: It's an initial one and What happens is he gets
Speaker 5: rolled by Sean smart good job of establishing the position
Speaker 5: in between the ball in Desmond, and then he cuts
Speaker 5: across and now he's inside the box.
Speaker 3: He's the wrong side of Desmond. His head's up. He
Speaker 3: sees Pinzone.
Speaker 5: There's still a lot of work to do because a
Speaker 5: Kaboo is coming over to close down. But Pinzone leans forward,
Speaker 5: gets his body shaped correct.
Speaker 3: Does enough to get it beyond.
Speaker 2: Who's bunchabang And now Joe Jowell those fresh legs. Chow
Speaker 2: goes down. What color will this card be? It is
Speaker 2: going to be red for Chibby Cabo. Sacramento down a
Speaker 2: goal and now down to ten.
Speaker 5: The worst right now for the Sacramento Republic. And this
Speaker 5: is a agonizing turn of events. He is the last man.
Speaker 5: Okabu gets his hips turned around the wrong way. Jojow
Speaker 5: takes a really really smart touch to get in front
Speaker 5: of him.
Speaker 2: This is a big five man wall in front of
Speaker 2: Solomon a Sante. A Sante trying to go round the wall,
Speaker 2: and it's an easy catch for Viziello. So you added
Speaker 2: all the variables. Now for Sacramento down a goal, down
Speaker 2: a man, and they've barely had any of the game
Speaker 2: in the second half.
Speaker 5: This game has been more about Las Vegas being good
Speaker 5: than it's been about Sacramento being bad in the second half.
Speaker 3: Well right away, come to the USL Championship.
Speaker 2: Smart's been a regular contributor all year long, and so
Speaker 2: is popmar Boy.
Speaker 3: Over at Phoenix.
Speaker 5: It may sound nice to go play in Major League Soccer,
Speaker 5: for sure, and get drafted and all that. I'm just
Speaker 5: scrape for your ego, but if you're not playing games,
Speaker 5: what does that really do for your development?
Speaker 2: Here's a Sante Solomon as Sante saved pat it in
Speaker 2: the middle and taken by it to yellow. He's been
Speaker 2: gold dangerous all night long as Sante and nothing has
Speaker 2: found in the back of the net yet tonight or
Speaker 2: this season. Sante them does have three assists to his.
Speaker 3: Name this season. Sante ring Gondo, Joe Joo.
Speaker 2: Joo, It's endlined, somehow got that cross away and Luis
Speaker 2: Felipe heads it away Smart Sean Smart saved. He's Gordon
Speaker 2: from outside the area this year. He has two goals
Speaker 2: to his name.
Speaker 5: John Smart making a big case for a man of
Speaker 5: the match type performance with his involvements, and.
Speaker 2: They want to keep it. There was some contact but
Speaker 2: no whistle and play on and Gondo went down. Now
Speaker 2: it's one back in the middle. Joe Hafferty moves it
Speaker 2: out wide. It's Valentinoel. It's saved. Hafferty again for Noel.
Speaker 2: Now Jabang laying it off, Sean Smarts on target and
Speaker 2: another say for Fitzi Yellow.
Speaker 3: The delivery it was too tall for.
Speaker 2: Fitzy Yellow and he almost got there. Remember earlier this
Speaker 2: year Week one, and.
Speaker 3: That is full time.
Speaker 2: These Lights continue to shine bright. Two to one win
Speaker 2: over Sacramento Republic and Las Vegas sweeps this season series.
Speaker 1: Big win for USL Championships and the Vegas Lights. Vegas
Speaker 1: Lights doing really well when they've invested the way that

Speaker 1: you're seeing the results on the field in Las Vegas.
