The Reserves played one of their best matches of the season on a sparkling fall afternoon at The Pasture, scoring in the final five minutes of each half and rallying to tie Kimball Union Academy 2-2.
The visitors drew first blood early in the first half on a good shot from the right flank that gave Arturo Johnson little chance to make the save. Arturo was flawless the rest of the way, and the Marauders controlled the match and scored near the end of the first half on a beautiful free kick by Francesco Trentinaglia.
The scoring pass repeated itself in the second half. Jasper Zeng took over in goal and was beaten on a long, high cross/shot that got lost in the sun. From then on, however, Jasper secured the net for the remainder of the game. Hanover was undaunted, and continued their pressing attack, getting good play from everyone. Mal Flynn and Mason Mallett were strong on the flanks, and George Geraghty and Tenzing Rumrill were dangerous up front. With time running down in the match, Geraghty controlled a loose ball and hit a hard shot that deflected off a KUA defender and found the back of the net, tying the match at 2-2.
The Reserves return to action on Friday, hosting Mount Royal Academy at The Pasture in a 4:30 match.
