LAS VEGAS, NV – Lights FC needed to defeat San Antonio to keep their playoff push alive and they delivered by obtaining a 4-2 win in front of 7,765 fans at Cashman Field. The results in other games favored Las Vegas, who finish the day only one point out of the last playoff spot in the Western Conference and three points away from ninth place.

A fantastic cross by Panzani Sousa found Javan Torre in the box who put it in the six-yard box with a header, and a bad clearance by Joshua Yaro allowed Irvin Raul Parra to strike it with his head. The assistant referee signaled the ball crossed the goal line before being unsuccessfully blocked by Yaro, giving Lights FC the lead 1-0.

"We're working hard day in and day out and we're busting our butts off because we're trying to prove to so many people that we want to be in the playoffs,'' stated Parra. "You guys can see from the way we played tonight we want to be in the playoffs. It's marvelous, you know, we never gave up."

San Antonio struck back immediately after the Lights FC first goal. A long ball from midfield by Rafa Castillo found Brian Gomez inside the box. After beating Bryan De La Fuente, he took a low-shot that slipped past Thomas Olsen to tie the score.

The aggressiveness from Las Vegas was at an all-time high with the team's playoffs hopes on the line and it paid off in the 22nd minute. Once again "Ferrety" Sousa was key in a Lights score, with his pass to Tabort Etaka Preston being slightly deflected by a San Antonio FC player but the ball still landed in front of the Cameroonian striker who scored to put the home team ahead once again.
