Storm collects third win in a row. 4-1 over Trigueros

 

Storm came from behind to capture their third win in as many games with a 4-1 win over Trigueros Saturday night at George Carver Middle School in Los Angeles.  It was suitable weather for the Storm with a steady drizzle of rain though out the night. The Trigueros started strong with pressure right from the start and keeping the Storm in their own Offensive zone. Then in the 12th minute of play, the Trigueros got past the Storm defense with a ball through the legs of a Storm defender, it was picked up by the Trigueros forward who got the first goal of the night past Storms keeper Steven Rodriguez. But just Seven minutes later it was the Storms turn as Tyler Coombes battling in front of the Trigueros net managed a pass to Jesus Lopez who Volleyed the ball and then chest trapped it and loft it in to tie up the score.

 In the second half with the score tied at one it was Lopez again with the ball except this time it was he who set up Mauricio Harrie in the 65th minute with a cross that found the feet of Harrie and with a quick shot passed the keeper two now take the lead. The Storm was just beginning to build as in the 75th minute it was Lopez again with a pass up field and it was a through ball to forward Tyler Coombes.  After missing an opportunity in the first half of play Coombes made sure this one counted has, he beat the keeper and gave the Storm a more comfortable lead of two goals. The Storm was clicking now and with the biggest percentage of possession they were looking like the team that was coming together with a series of passes and build ups, and it was only a short time then in the 83rd minute when Tyler Coombes received the ball midfield and carried it through the defense and creating a break away. But a Trigueros defense caught up with
Coombes and forced him to the side of the net and before going out Coombes made a nice neat pass along the goal line to the feet of the attacking Mauricio Harrie who collected his second goal of the night. That was enough to lead the Storm to their third victory in a row with a 4-1 win. The Storm now has a record of 3-0-3 in the LA Premier Soccer League with 9 points.
