North Texas made their season debut last night, winning 3-1 against Minnesota United II. Even in their new league and under a new coach, North Texas persisted in their winning ways.
What turned out to be a thrilling game between the two teams showcased the old and new talent that North Texas boasts. A first half goal by the squads oldest player and captain Derek Waldeck was followed up by a brace by super-sub 16-year-old Tarik Scott.
Scott, who has been a part of the FC Dallas system for 11 years already, has already bought into Pa-Modou Kah’s philosophy of high pressing soccer that capitalizes on mistakes.
