Welcome to sdh's coverage of everything going on in USL League One. We're gonna drop by and let you know what's going on in USL League one, give you the standings, get you ready for Yeagermeister Cup. It is one game for the one Cup. It is a separate competition. Everybody's gonna be watching Northern Colorado Hailstorm and Ford Madison as they pursue the Yeggermeister Cup this weekend at four Rivers,
nine o'clock on Saturday night. But we'll take you through all the news and let you know what's going on in USL League One outside of Yegermeister Cup. Busy weekend. On Saturday, Richmond Kickers shut out Lexington SC three to nil at City Stadium at Breece stevens Ford, Madison, Spokane Velocity two nil, Palette and Stadium A two two drag Greenville triumph in Central Valley Fuego, which gets us to our match of the week. It was at Tormenta Stadium
in Statesboro, Georgia, South Georgia Tormento's Charlotte Independence. Here's your highlights courtesy of our friends at ESPN plus, USL League One and YouTube.
Between the sticks today. Played well last week in that win at Rapids two. Visconti Cristiano's quite an experienced back line. It's gotten a lot of first team experience playing down with the second team lately. Marchanic Dylon as he checks his watch and blows the opening whistle, and we are in motion. In Kansas City. SKC two would go back
above the playoff line with even a point today. If you start the match, there's lots of energy both ways and then all of a sudden, all the air comes out of the balloon for almost ten minutes, but here they go again. Minnesota United pulled in the penalty spot, a big save early on, and then it's cleared off the doorstep. See Minnesota United lining up five in that main wall, and then it is Hobby Bulla who scares. He went around the wall and Hobby Bulla breaks through.
They needed his goals down the stretch and he has a big one today and he has grown and improved so much this season. Here's Avila threading it through, big chance for a second goal around the keeper. It is a second goal. It's Malon kum Palais and Sporting Case two a blistering sequence they double their lead quanty just three minutes in out swinging corner into a good area and there is a goal back from Minnesota United, exactly what they needed before halftime. They are right back in it.
It's two to one United. This is a great first touch by Nieves and Nieves to the end line, his cross toward the back post into the Mexicos. It's to too incredible Minnesota United to nail down. Looked dead and buried for most of the first half, They've rallied back with two late ones and before halftime it is being given to Martinez and there is the halftime whistle. So remarkable turnaround in the final minutes of that half. No substitutions at halftime. We continue with the same elevens that
began this match. I should check that, of course, Mason Visconti had to leave the match very early with that unfortunate injury. We are back in motion here in Kansas City. This falls from a Sanvi Nieve miss Sanvi. Good interplay. Massanvi goes on being harassed by Carson Klein and now a stride in a hit from distance, struck pretty well
by Comet. His momentum was gone though Donovan neat feet initially and then the ball ricocheted up off his hand and a free kick from Minnesota United, and then he kicked the ball away and has shown a yellow card for that, and that's his second yellow. I believe Sam Shashua will take this one. Takes it into the middle.
What a save.
Touched over the bar by Jacob Mullinaro, instinctive, reactive and now it's in the avese. The Aves uses his strength very well. The Aves chops onto his left Neavese on frame, but Mullinaro again in Sanviy, persisting after it and wins it back and now Randall, Randall to the end line, back to his left, pulls it back. Massanvi skeffed it first time, comes through to Martinez, who didn't get ahold
of it cleanly either. A decently creative finish attempt by Martinez when you see it back hit it with the outside of his right foot. That was about all he could do from where his body was not enough to beat Mullinaro, though he tries again from range on Mulinaro again touches it over the bar and continues to put on a show and cut out crucially by Aiden Martinez, who starts at the other direction, and it's loved over the top for Shashua who's in. Shashua scores on.
The counter attack.
The Loons laid for the first time today, two nil down in the first half, a game they have to win. Spastian Cruz came on at the left back spot early in the first half. He's essentially playing as a forward now and around the back. It's a great ball in and out to smother at Mullinaro or at least block it out. It'll be a throw. Good footwork Martinez. Here's Randal again. Randall cuts inside. Randall scores and that should do it for the Loans. They love the rain. They
complete their comeback and salt away the three points. It should keep their playoff hopes narrowly alive. It's gonna be it. Maybe time for one more for Nieves and on into the path pulled back Nieves onto his left. Nieves blocks by Nattie Clark. If there's the final whistle, what a turnaround. What a victory from Minnesota United.
Two six goal thriller for Tormenta and a goal at ninety plus salvage is a point for Tormenta at home against Charlotte Independence Warner Park Papala, Nebraska, Union Omaha one nil winners over one Knox and Hailstorm and Chattanooga Red Wolves a goal to draw at four rivers. So that sets up the standings outside of Jegermeister Cup, since we are down to the final competition there right now, Union Omaha seventeen matches played and they are into the postseason.
They are sixteen points clear of the eighth seed and they are good to go at thirty five points. They've won three in a row Ford Madison. They have found their winning way thirty one points and they are unbeaten in five. They've won two in a row, Charlotte Independents having to settle for the one point on the road last time. That's a big point for South Georgia. Tormento. We'll let you know how in just a little bit. Charlotte at thirty points there in third. Greenville Triumph is
in fourth. Eight wins, eighteen matches played, and they have you've got to go down several tie breakers because same number of wins is one Knox and it is same in goal difference. They have hit each column once in their last three, so Greenville Triumph is at twenty eight points there in fourth one knox Hey they've hit the column each once in their last three. They are eight twenty eight points in fifth, Hailstorm twenty six points in sixth. They have hit each column once in their last three,
so have Spokene Velocity. Spokane ten goals back in goal difference, have seven wins same number of matches played as Hailstorm. Richmond kickers right now because they have five wins compared to South Georgia two moments is four. They're above the playoff bar at nineteen points. Richmond is won two in a row and they're at nineteen points and they're in eighth tormenta with some work to do. They've got to
get north of the playoff bar. They are one win behind and they've got a better goal difference than Richmond currently does by nine. So if they can find a way to twist that deficit in points and in wins, they can be the one that's north of the playoff bar. Chattanooga Red Wolves snap their four game losing streak with a point last time out Lexington SC. They have lost
three of four. They're at seventeen points in eighteen matches, they have four wins and compared to Red Wolves five, Central Valley three eleven and three in regular season play seventeen matches, goal difference of minus twenty two, they are at twelve points. They did, however, snap their four game losing streak last time out. So now news and notes in USL League One as we continue to roll forward
