Matansa FC thumps WNT Development Team in MSL


Matansa Football Club beat the WNT Development Team, 8-2, in the Marianas Soccer League Fall Season 2022 Division B game last Oct, 14 at the NMI Soccer Training Center in Koblerville. Gabriel Arkoh Jr. busted the game open two minutes in and scored the first goal for Matansa. The WNT tried to set up for a counter attack but were rejected throughout the first half as they were unable to score. Meanwhile, two more goals were made in the first half by Dylan Mister to put Matansa up 3-0 leading into the second half. Kaithlyn Chavez of the WNT finally put the ladies up on the board in the 49th minute but were still behind by two. The lead widened in the 54th minute as Arkoh broke through the net once again and was followed up by Garret Weaver for a 5-1 game. The extent of the WNT’s attempted damage toward Matansa ended after Jannah Casarino scored their last goal in the 65th minute. Their defense collapsed at Matansa’s three more successful attacks on the goal, courtesy of Maxwell Church, Mister once again, and Harry Kapwich for the final score of 8-2.
