Southern United FC bests MPU FC in U16 girls

Southern United Football Club bested MPU Football Club, 6-2, in Week 6 of the TakeCare Youth Soccer League Fall 2022 last Saturday at the Northern Mariana Islands Soccer Training Center in Koblerville.

Even with MPU drawing first blood in the 10th minute they couldn’t keep the momentum as Southern United’s Pia Newakl scored three minutes later to tie up the game. Newakl found the back of the net again in the 20th minute with Fiona Regan of MPU tying it up again three minutes later.

Newakl finished the hat-trick in the 29th minute after teammate Vaniqa Torres added another goal for a game of 4-2. MPU could not score any more goals as they fell to the Southern United girls, with Brianne Echalico scoring in two more for the final score of 6-2.
