STATESBORO, GA – South Georgia Tormenta FC forward Kiana Jacobson’s dramatic goal in the 90th minute was enough to give the home side a 1-0 victory over Tennessee Soccer Club USL W League team at Tormenta Stadium in Statesboro, GA on Monday evening.
As the clock was ticking down, it looked as if TSCW was going to earn a hard-fought draw against Tormenta FC, the defending National Champions in the USL W League. It was not to be, however, as a long ball was sent down the right flank behind the TSCW defensive line. The ball was driven across and Jacobson slid to deflect it into the corner of the net.
The visitors had staged a tremendous defensive effort throughout the match. In in the 73rd minute, TSCW goalkeeper Taiana Tolleson came up huge, saving a penalty kick after a Tormenta player was taken down in the box.
“We had a good game plan and were executing it well into the second half,” said TSC W Head Coach Dalton Kaufman. “I was very proud Taiana and how much all the players put into the match. It was unfortunate that we were not able to earn a point.”
TSCW returns to action Thursday, May 23rd with its home opener against league newcomers Birmingham Legion FC at Ravenwood High School kicking off at 7:30 pm CT.
