Epps, Real make big contributions in key Steel home win

A pair of goals from Santi Moar helped Bethlehem Steel to a massive 2-0 victory over Ottawa Fury Wednesday night at Goodman Stadium. Philadelphia Union winger Marcus Epps and homegrown fullback Matt Real were involved in the goals, which helped Steel create a four point gap between themselves and Ottawa in the standings.

Steel have been leaning on youth over the past month as they have surged up the standings into the playoff picture. The win puts Steel both four points from third place in the USL Eastern Conference standings and four points above the playoff red line, meaning they will not fall out of postseason position even if things go poorly in Nashville this weekend.
