As Penn FC prepared to kick off for Saturday night’s match, their official Twitter said that their plan for the evening was to “shock” Louisville City FC at Louisville Slugger Field. While they didn’t end up with the win when the final whistle blew, they managed to deliver multiple shocks that the defending champs won’t be forgetting any time soon.
In the time it took most people to read that first paragraph, Penn FC had already scored on Louisville. Louisville was sloppy with the opening kickoff and Penn FC’s Harri Hawkins booted a bouncing ball into Louisville territory that Paco Craig attempted to recover.
