Speaker 10: to insurmountable Ventesity says as a coach, when you have
Speaker 10: a kid so young, you don't sleep much, you have
Speaker 10: to be able to think.
Speaker 3: On your feet.
Speaker 2: And Union Omaha since day one of this season have
Speaker 2: been utterly dominant.
Speaker 1: Win for Union Omaha knocks South Georgia Tormenta out of
Speaker 1: playoff contention in a match that finished with eight Don't
Speaker 1: think it's been a while since I've seen a match
Speaker 1: finish with three red cards for one team. Happen that
Speaker 1: way for South Georgia Tormenta in their loss to Union Omaha.
Speaker 1: Then it was a Hailstorm Overspokene Velocity one nil to
Speaker 1: finish up your Saturday Sunday at Fresno State Central Valley
Speaker 1: Fuego one nil winners over Greenville Triumph. So that sets
Speaker 1: up your standings in the league once again. We know
Speaker 1: who's in now, we just have to figure out positions.
Speaker 1: Union Omaha in the the top seed forty five points,
Speaker 1: Ford Madison at thirty nine, Hailstorm at thirty eight. That's
Speaker 1: the battle for the two and the three. Greenville's at
Speaker 1: thirty four they have ten wins one Knox Is at
Speaker 1: thirty four they have nine. They are tied on goal difference.
Speaker 1: Charlotte's at thirty one points. Spokane has lost five in
Speaker 1: a row. They hit a wall and they are at
Speaker 1: twenty six points. Richmond is in at twenty four. So
Speaker 1: the battles are for the two and the three, the
Speaker 1: five and the six, and for the seven and the
Speaker 1: eight eliminated Lower case Ease. South Georgia Tormenta with a
Speaker 1: record of four nine and eight with one match to go,
Speaker 1: red Wolves at eighteen points, Central Valley at eighteen points,
Speaker 1: identical record, worst goal difference, and lesas C at eighteen points,
Speaker 1: four wins, eleven losses and six draws. So that sets
Speaker 1: up the six matches that will wrap up the season
Speaker 1: for week twenty five. So how it is, as you're
Speaker 1: getting to the finish line here, all of those matches
Speaker 1: will have something to do with impact, and the folks
Speaker 1: below that are in the lower Casease, they have their
Speaker 1: chance to be Boilers going forward. So Saturday afternoon, players
Speaker 1: Shield is claimed, playoffs are set and so that's where
Speaker 1: we are. Chattanooga tried against Richmond and it didn't quite happen,
Speaker 1: so it ended up being Richmond getting the eight. As
Speaker 1: as we go here, So Union Omaha got their third
Speaker 1: Players Shield in the last four years with the win
Speaker 1: against South Georgia Tormento on the Dolabella ninety minute winner.
Speaker 1: Omaha had never won after trailing by two goals previously
Speaker 1: in league play this year. Ford Madison got at least
Speaker 1: one home match at Breeze Stevens with the draw with
Speaker 1: one Knox twenty two points from eleven home matches this
Speaker 1: year involving Ford Madison Chattanooga red Wolves. Total points lost
Speaker 1: from winning positions thirteen for Chattanooga this year. And then
Speaker 1: South Georgia Tormento once again as we played in the
Speaker 1: Match of the week two goal lead let it get
Speaker 1: away from him, finished with eight and then Green had
Speaker 1: a chance to chase after a top four spot, but
Speaker 1: they end up losing to Central Valley and so they've
Speaker 1: got to get a result here in match Week twenty two.
