U10A
The U10A boys had a productive weekend, beating Asphalt Green in CJSL play and Islas Malvinas in the New York Cup, both by 2-1 margins.
The boys played a well-fought match last Saturday against Asphalt Green. The defense stopped numerous attempted runs at goal and beat back several attacks, while Justin Silva was solid at goal and played smart throughout the match.
Elias Andriopoulas scored from distance on a free kick and Ramo Lukovic added a pretty second goal with his left foot from about 12 yards out to extend the lead to 2-0.
A late goal on a free kick was too little too late for the opponents.
The boys advanced to the semifinal round of the New York Cup last Sunday, defeating Islas Malvinas in a closely matched and hard fought game. Silva made several brilliant plays on sure goals and preserved the victory for the Cosmos, who went down 0-1 early in the second half before bouncing back with two late goals.
Matthew Vitell scored from long range with about eight minutes remaining to tie the game and change the momentum. With approximately two minutes remaining, Matthew Rubinstein ripped a shot past the goalie to put the game away.
U10B
The BWG Cosmos U10B squad defeated Millenium Soccer Kids 6-1 this past Saturday. Johan Grande Rojas went on a tear, scoring four while Kenon Sadik and Nicholas Mlcuch added one apiece.
The goal of the game came about as goalie Julian Mella distributed the ball to fullback Kenon Sadik, who passed down the line to midfield Vic Regateiro. He then distributed it to forward Matthew Krische, who onetimed the ball in the middle to Nicholas Mlcuch, who placed the ball in the corner of the net.
U13
The Gottschee U13 boys had a very good season opener this past weekend. On Saturday the boys played a CJSL game against DUSC U13 Blue and won 6-0. On Sunday morning, U13 found themselves in Millburn N.J. to play the Millburn Pyhtons. A good hard fought game with the game ending scoreless.
On Sunday afternoon, the boys were home in Brennan Field at Juniper Valley Park for a late afternoon makeup game against Buena Vista of Brooklyn. Good game from all the boys, with the end score of 6-0.
