The Swope Park Rangers played to a 1-1 draw with Sacramento Republic FC on Saturday night at Bonney Field. After a goalless first half, the Rangers took the lead through Kevin Oliveira in the 73rd minute, but Sac Republic hit right back through Cameron Iwasa as the game finished all square.
The Rangers (3-4-2, 11 pts.) threatened first, when Oliveira’s free kick from 20 yards flew just over the Sac Republic crossbar in the sixth minute. Sacramento (4-3-2, 14 pts.) responded by creating two chances of their own, but a defensive block by Tommy Meyer and a save by Zac Lubin denied Harry Williams and Daniel Trickett-Smith, respectively.
