In order to make that happen, SAFC will need a much stronger performance than the one they produced down in the valley in May when they were handily defeated 3-1, their first ever loss at HEB Park. But SAFC will feel great about themselves rolling into this match off a 4-1 road victory over Reno, the number two team in the West. This is definitely not the same SAFC team that RGV faced three months ago.

This SAFC team has Frank Lopez who has scored 4 goals in 5 matches. And this SAFC team has scored 2 or more goals in 5 of their last six matches, winning four of them. Things are finally moving in the right direction for San Antonio.

Cristian Parano had a brace against Reno and has scored 4 goals in the last 8 games. He knows SAFC needs to keep building. “We just have to continue fighting and building on what we have been working on. We have a very talented squad and the possibilities are endless for us, so we have to put our heads down and work hard to keep progressing.”
