Raheem Somersall made his club debut last Saturday and brought the energy Tormenta FC has been looking for. The former FC Tucson captain showed his speed and played a crucial role in breaking up the Triumph’s defense to offense transitions. Now that former Charleston Battery Vincenzo Candela is eligible for play this weekend, the two are sure to cause problems in the midfield.
Forward Madison FC kicked off their USL League One campaign with a 1-1 draw against Tucson FC, a 1-0 win over North Carolina FC and most recently a 1-0 victory over Union Omaha earlier this week. A key Madison player to watch is forward Derek Gebhard who scored the game-winning goal in stoppage time against North Carolina FC. His explosive speed caught the Carolina defense off guard as fatigue set in late in the game.
Following tomorrow’s matchup, the Statesboro squad will host their first matchup against the Chattanooga Red Wolves this season on June 5 at 8 pm ET for Pride Night.
