League Game 14: FC Zenit St. Petersburg vs Santa Cruz Breakers


The fans of the Breakers sure had something to cheer about last week with a 1-0 win against the Rangers Football Club. Could the Breakers finally get a back to back win??


FC Zenit St. Petersburg beat the Breakers 2-0 in the 4th league game of the season. The first match against FC Zenit St. Petersburg was a frustrating match for the Breakers since the Breakers gave up both goals in the final 3 minutes of the match!


However, the Breakers had no offense and their defense kept them in the match until the end when Del Bene (16) knocked the goalie Desi (5) down leading to the first score of the match at the 87'.

The Breakers wanted revenge and were hoping for a better outing against FC Zenit St. Petersburg.


Unfortunately the match began the way most matches have started with the Breakers giving up the first goal of the match at the 8'. This pattern typically has led to the Breakers losing the match!


The second goal of the match came shortly after at the 21' and the Breakers were quickly down 2-0.

The Breakers continued to be dominated and headed into the half trailing 2-0.


The second half began with a quick attack by the Breakers which led to a horrible shot that had no change on goal.


FC Zenit St. Petersburg on the other hand remained aggressive and score the third goal of the match at the 69'. This third goal definitely put the match out of reach.



Late in the match, FC Zenit St. Petersburg scored their fourth goal at the 90+' and won the match 4-0. The match was completely doimated by FC Zenit St. Petersburg who took 11 shots on goal compared to only 3 by the Breakers!
