Kenyan midfielder Tobias Otieno made his long-awaited Union Omaha debut in a 3-2 win against Fort Lauderdale on Wednesday.
The win saw Otieno’s side end a three-match losing streak which was largely threatening their season. Ethan Vanacore-Decker, Austin Panchot and Evan Conway were Union Omaha’s scorers in a tense night while Eduardo Sosa and Felipe Valencia were scorers of Fort Lauderdale as they failed to capitalise on their opponents struggle to win the game.
Panchot scored the opener for Otieno’s side when he swiftly moved behind Fort Lauderdale defenders and slotted home in the 25th minute.
