STATESBORO, Ga. – South Georgia Tormenta FC takes on Chattanooga Red Wolves SC for the second time this season this Saturday, Aug. 22. Coming off of three losses, Tormenta FC looks to make things right in Chattanooga and come home with all three points.
“Just two weeks ago, we were in really good form and playing well, and then, through a series of strange events, all of a sudden we’re three losses in a row,” TFC Head Coach John Miglarese said. “We really want to make that right. We’ve had ambitions to be successful this year, but also more than that, we take pride in how we perform, how we carry ourselves.”
Tormenta FC and Chattanooga Red Wolves played an exciting match on July 25, resulting in a 2-2 tie at Erk Russell Park. Marco Micaletto started the match off scoring a goal within the first 10 minutes and after Tormenta FC conceded two goals via Chattanooga’s Greg Hurst, Daniel Jackson helped the home side earn a point by scoring a stoppage-time goal.
“I think we performed well last meeting,” Miglarese said. “I expect it to be really tight and down to the last-minute like it was last time. I think they’ve got some dangerous attacking players, so we have to be cautious with them but also make sure that we are imposing our will in the game as well.”
Learning from their past few matches, the team looks to play more aggressively on Saturday and hopefully get an early goal to set the tone for the rest of the match.
“I think being aggressive is one of the main things that we’ve been lacking lately,” TFC forward Devyn Jambga said. “The guys have spoken about that and we need to step that up on our end because that's under our control. So we're definitely going to be more aggressive and try to impose ourselves even though we're not at home.”
