Manchester Central 4, Concord 2

Key players: Concord – Benjamin Hughes (goal), Bronson Becker (assist), Festo Bahininwa (10 saves), Dean Ayotte (midfield), Irankunda Mvuyekure (forward)

Highlights: Concord trailed 1-0 early, but Hughes scored the equalizer off a through ball from Becker, and pressure from Hughes and Mvuyekure up front forced Central to give up an own goal to give the Tide a 2-1 halftime lead. The Little Green scored three goals in the second half to claim the win. Bahininwa made several outstanding saves while filling in for injured starting goalkeeper, Matthew Jenness.

Coach’s quote:  “We battled from beginning to end with Central, who is a top-eight team.” – Concord’s Scott Dunlop

Records: Central 7-2; Concord 2-6
