Roots Report: Gem State

T2 beat S2 for the first time ever last week. With a 1-0 win at Providence Park, T2 took all three points against the worst team in the USL West, Sounders 2. It was Villyan Bijev who got his first goal for T2 and the defense secured a shut out against a misfiring S2 attack. With Bijev's first goal for T2, that makes 8 different players who have scored for T2, and McIntosh got his 2nd shutout of the season while Hamilton continues first team bench duty to cover Jake Gleeson.

Villyan Bijev got his goal in the 25th minute with a powerful, driven shot from distance to beat S2 keeper Charlie Lyon.
