Pre-game: USL QF – Impact vs Charleston Battery
By: Franck | September 23rd, 2009
Tomorrow night we start our quest for the USL title, starting a home-and-away series at home against the Charleston Battery. I figured I’d go through some of the good, the bad and the ugly about our current situation:
The Good: We’re playing our best footie of the year right now, with Peter Byers scoring four goals and one assist in his last seven games. The Impact lost only once last eight regular season matches, ending with a 5-1-2 10GF 6GA record. We finished with the second best defense at home in the league this season, having only conceded 9 goals in 15 matches at Saputo Stadium. Carolina gave up only 8 goals in 15 home games. We’ve only given up one goal in 3GP this season against the Battery.
The Bad: We’ve yet to score a goal this season against the Battery. We played a pair of 0-0 draws, one at home, one on the road, and lost 1-0 at home. Stefano Pesoli is out, purging his one-game suspension.
The Ugly: We’re under .500 lifetime against the Battery in regular season play, posting a record of 8-10-2 18GF 19GA in 20GP. We’ve only won twice against them in our last 10 confrontations (2-6-2).
Probable starters:
Jordan
Braz, Joqueviel, Pizzolitto, de Roux
Testo, Donatelli, Di Lorenzo, Gjertsen
Brown, Byers
