Tormenta FC Falls to North Texas 2-1

Tormenta FC lost 2-1 to North Texas SC who clinched the USL League One regular season championship tonight. Tormenta FC took an early lead in the 4th minute when Conner Antley scored from Charlie Dennis’ free-kick. North Texas’ Richard Donso then evened things up in the 21st. Before the end of the first half, North Texas scored once again, bringing the score to 2-1.

“I thought we battled hard tonight,” Tormenta FC Head Coach John Miglarese said. “The biggest thing I asked the players to do was to put their hearts into the match, and I think they did that. They were throwing their bodies in front of shots and really put it into shift. Unfortunately, we conceded right at halftime and that put us in a really bad scenario. But the biggest takeaway was our shape was good and we worked hard and created chances.”

Tormenta was unable to even the score back up and in the 73rd, was forced to carry on with just ten men after Joshua Phelps received a red card.

Tormenta FC is now tied for fifth place with the Chattanooga Red Wolves and travels to face Lansing Ignite who sits second in the USL League One standings.
