e [Applause] [Music] it’s the start of a new month and the start of a new Regional Regional rivalry in USL as Hartford athletic host the Rhode Island FC hi everybody along with Mark donalson I’m Joe D Ambrosio it should be a Charged atmosphere here tonight about 200 Rhode Island supporters making the track from the ocean state to the Constitution State yeah it should be a good one nice to be here for the start of something there’s one question that has not yet been answered I’m going to ask you that question what is the name of the Derby is it the Derby what are we calling this rivalry it’s the route 6 Derby it’s the roote 6 Derby Harford back in the saddle last Saturday night uh with a nice win over montere Bay got off to a shaky start mark But then Mei angalina got hurt for on the board you need a little bit of help in the deflection meaning the goalkeeper has got no issues whatsoever and couldn’t get nearer then the double somersault and handstand from the G scorer but then it’s Von zil who does really well to set up to Shane Beckford and Hartford coming from behind to getting a much needed three points all right let’s do ones to watch and we’re going to look at two from Rhode Island good players as well top scorer in the league last season however he got off to a quick start Albert daa having signed from Pittsburgh there was a lot of interest in him he hasn’t been on target of late but Steven turble getting forward and he has a striker in him as well decent player good finisher when he gets into the opposition box despite the fact they are where they are in the table 11 they’re better than that and we take a look at the table for the Eastern Conference here in week 13 Charleston had their first loss of the season and you see these two teams neck and neck with a lot of the year to go look the league table doesn’t lie however I think both Hartford and Rhode Island are in a false position but but they’ve got to show it they’ve got to prove it they’ve got to get the points starting lineups and kickoff coming up next here on ESPN plus an injured name might look pretty simple but there’s a whole person behind that injury one who misses the feel of his jump shot and spending time with friends on the court it’s not enough just to heal he needs to get back out there at Trinity Health we’re here to help you reach your goals we combine all the knowledge and expertise of a national health system with personalized health care that treats the individual behind the injury because we see all of you achievement takes more than having a dream it takes having the spirit to beat the odds it takes the courage to pursue a passion the heart to turn a house into a home [Music] and the determination to turn an idea into an Enterprise I’m the Hartford buck and I see the human in human achievement with insurance from the Hartford the Bucks got your back at Lux Bond and green we have been designing and crafting custom jewelry for decades it’s an art as

quality value and selection Lux Bond and green Jewelers throughout Connecticut and Massachusetts the flags are flying across the way as the first ever meeting between Rhode Allen FC and Harford athletic is set to begin Harford athletic would like to thank the Mandel JCC of Greater Hartford the official fitness center of Harford athletic visit Andel jcc.org to learn more last fly is the leader in airport parking in Bradley International safe 20% by pre-booking on llyc lastly a proud supporter of hardford athletic beautiful night for soccer for the beautiful game Mark lups brought to you as always by the good Folks at Liberty Bank One change for Hartford Thomas Vil is replaced by Anderson ASU in Midfield it’s a flexible front four so expect a lot of movement between angalina and Beckford with Chapman and Fs in behind and as far as Rhode Island is concerned the expansion team mostly a lineup that we’ve seen a lot this year that would change up front concerning Mark Doyle yeah they brought Doyle in there’s also a change at left back with Colin Smith coming in for alvz the last season’s top scorer in the league Albert daa needs to try and find the back of the net again a couple of months for him without a goal but watch for Jack panayotou decent from Midfield un loan from the RS yeah he’s had two assists in his three games very dangerous on set pieces as I mentioned this is a chamber of commerce type of weather night here 83° winds out of the West at 9 miles an hour you see the road uniforms r h o t the Amber and blue for the visitors from Rhode Island three points on the line the route 6 Derby is underway this is a Rhode Island team that has played Four draws already this year and Frank no Dar sends the ball aimlessly over the goal line so it’ll be a throw in let’s do our keys to the game they are brought to you by hofman quite simple for hord Goodwin last week good energy build on that and seven out of 11 games have been drawn too many drop points for Rhode Island time to turn them into wins winless in their last five 02 and three is Reese Buckmaster gets the ball in Chapman survives The Tackle attempt here’s Beckford pops one over the go and it’ll be K Vegas who drew a clean sheet against Harford last year in the employee of San Diego Loyale a team that went out of business after last season Vegas has one of the best foot feet from the gold position anybody in the league here’s hardford on the attack it’s EPS in the Box sends it across before AIU could get it over the goal line by Mary bar so it’ll be a corner for Hartford here in minute number two an example of the fluency of the front four for Hartford Marcus EPS putting the ball into the area now a chance for Tristan H to deliver scarlet and ferrell come up with aadu rly Mack and de Gila in the Box headed down and out Chapman’s volley cleared off the line JJ Williams a recent Edition former Tampa Bay Rowdy help to clear for Rhode Island FC and there’ll be a throw in on the East sideline before a very crowded supporter section over there here’s our referees for tonight Luis Diego aroo one match this year handed out eight cards here’s a quick counter and it’ll be the first corner of the night and this is where the youngster Jack penu is very dangerous he’s a super player not only from a dead ball we’re going to see him from a corner but just involving himself with Albert dequa playing around him as well in the wide areas he’ll have support as well he can deliver this is a big threat for Hartford they’ve scored a couple on Corners this year has Rhode Island played into the box Joe Farrell second header and then cleared out on the volley by Tristan H good think when we talked with head coach Bron Burke during the week he said they want to get the ball up field quickly on the Counterattack against the Rhode Island team that has given up 16 goals this year that’s 15th in the league Harford with 21 conceded here Rhode Island 12 is the midfielder Klay holstead 24 kifa Yao you know we talk about Rhode Allen being expansion team but in this league Mark there’s such turnover in rosters ball set into the box and a [Applause] goal Albert daa who scored three goals against Harford last year comes up limping but in the fourth minute he has given Rhode Island the lead Mark Doyle was in there as well number 14 and dea’s taken a knock for his trouble but it looks like Mark Doyle might have got the Final Touch it’s not good defending from Hartford and Rhode Island inside 5 minutes in their first meeting between these two sides are enjoying the celebrations the problem they may have is that DEA is still slow to get up and it is Mark Doyle with the Final Touch just ahead of his teammate Beyond Hanan hero in goal for Harford but not the start that Brenden B was looking for that is wle defending from Harford and they have been punished the first goal of the Year from the Irishman who played in the Ireland Premier League the last couple of years mark Doyle played for S Pats played for draa come over here giving United States a go daqua looks like he’ll be okay he’s just a little bit slow to get back into the half so play can be restarted referee Lis Royo just checking on daqua making sure he’s okay but it’s the perfect star for canos Smith Island head coach and it’s a frequent theme for Hartford fall behind at home well they did that last time week past Friday and they went on to win the game that’s what they have to do again now Beckford has it taken away by Rhode Island Dole knocks it away and it’ll be a Rhode Island throwing so Doyle gets the goal Rode Island and Hartford both with 10 goals on the season coming in that’s to for 21st in the league only Birmingham with nine has scored fewer when you’re a manager and the opposition scor so worldy there’s there’s not much you can do about that if it’s if it’s just one of those things but that was a p goal and that will annoy brandenbur Anderson ASU back in the starting lineup replacing Thomas Von Kil who’s out for personal reasons here’s zaps tries to cut inside on iaro good dribbling into the box oh no Dar sends it over the goal line are they going to say last Touch by Harford yeah they he kind of walked away sheepishly I don’t think he actually got a touch I think he meant to get a touch but he didn’t get a touch hence the goal kick is it unusual that they have no Dar start the goal kick and he just passes it right back to Vegas no not not these is cuz K former La Liga goalkeeper with Levante is very very good with his feet he’s basically forget the fact he’s wearing a different kit forget the fact he’s wearing gloves he’s another outfielder for them he’s so good with his feet so it’s no real issue for them it just allows them to to get the ball restarted a bit quicker Trinity Health of New England proud to be the official medical provider and title partner of Harford athletic always committed to providing the best Healthcare experience every day for every patient Trinity Health of New England we see all of you so Harford chasing a goal from the fourth minute that’s the sixth goal harford’s seeded in the 15th minute or earlier this year Brendan Burke would be the first to tell you that’s far too many Rhode Island did something that not many teams have done they stopped l City from scoring last time out a goal as draw in the ocean state last that’s the third home scoreless draw at burn Stadium on the campus of Bryant University in Smithfield they’re building what looks to be a beautiful facility in [Music] Pucket throw on the far side nice back heel by pan U and Harford clears it out kif Yao wins the battle now aad D to Beckford taking off his boot plenty of room to be chased down on the near sideline by Steven Turnbull this is a team that’s been in every game this year I like them Joe they’re a good side I don’t I think they’re a lot better than their leag position suggests angalina offside the flag is up the assistant referees Nicholas Seymour and Amil car caju and the fourth official at the table is Brian cornetta I like the middle to front I really like tumble who saw pregame one of the players to watch loves to get forward from fullback they’ve got threat in the air Yao and Nar who scored recently from a set play at Colorado it’s going to get wins on the board off the Good Start frell Head heads it towards Midfield Chapman double team and foul on Rhode Island super crowd tonight really really good it’s not often at kickoff time there’s still cars waiting in line to get into the parking lot and there were a lot of them here’s EPS racing in the Left Channel engelina in the box and support EP dribbles it himself in Vegas with a waist tie catch of the Marcus EPS [Applause] attempt 1 nil Rhode Island on top please join us in thanking founding partner the Hartford for educating children about fire safety with their junior fire marshall program visit Junior fir marshall.com to learn more when I asked head coach Koo Smith about leadership he said well Vegas is our captain but we’ve had several veteran players take on leadership roles ep’s very busy early here’s a SEO making his eighth start of the Year tonight he started in the 4-1 loss at Indie and then wasn’t selected for the Monterey Bay game I want to see the two holding midfielders the the double six pivot I want to see them in possession when they’re not under pressure be braver on the ball and always try and look forward as your first option cuz this started with Anderson ASU playing it back the way and now they’ve lost possession here’s EPS on the steel tackled Away expertly by the former Pittsburgh River how dear flag is up as DEA sprinted up the left side yeah Buck master was the furthest back there and that was the the issue is was he far enough forward to ensure it wasn’t going to be an issue and the answer was yes it was deep was off here’s Buck Master who’s gone a full 90 the last two the diminutive aadu challenged by ibar of Rhode Island Anderson has it taken away Mark Doyle called for the foul I see a do down on the turf so what what we’ve seen from set plays mainly Corners with with Hartford in recent games is Joe Farrell is the target to head it back across goal or to flick it on near post I don’t think there’s any doubt that this is a a foul by Mark Doyle just too high with a boot keep tabs on Joe farro number 15 here see if he is one of the targets it’s mainly from corners but they do try and work him into set plays for J Chapman’s free kicks he Mass Ma andila and Scarlet h o frell signaling a play to Chapman Canadian scored a goal already this year plays it short and Galina on the right we see him and Beckford change sides set far post headed out of danger by Rhode Island sent towards the 18 Ferell gets AE on it cleared by DEA on the volley bu Master playing in the middle they’ll send it all the way back to hen hio that goalie conceded was his ninth in five games this year and on most of those goals he’s been pretty much left alone on his back line he’s a good goalkeeper and just like K is in possession right now very good at Distributing the ball when he has it quickly as well that was a mindset for Harford last weeko bble to do that Beckford and Turnbull in a challenge and it’s going to go against the Shane Beckford Dan Gaspar The goalkeeping Coach Off the Bench you know I was on a conference call this week talking about referees and other broadcasters yellow cards and they said paying attention to the technical staff has been a point of emphasis this year nice ball played in front and Galina against nari Mei who scored harford’s first goal last week has goals in two consecutive games tries to work a give and go and OD Dary sends it into the corner over the goal line Second corter of the night M Dar is someone that Harford can get at with the pace he’s good in the air he’s tall but he’s not great against small Pacey forwards keep keep t and Joe Farrell here just to the edge of the box right now he sometimes goes near post to try and flick it on that’s where he’s headed ball set far post and wasted opportunity it’ll be a goal kick for Rhode Island ry’s wer Street Pizza the official Pizza of Harford Athletics stop by the stadium or visit their other Connecticut locations to enjoy some of the best pizza Connecticut has to offer if you’re just joining us you missed an early goal in the fourth minute Mark Doyle after a defensive miscue in front by Hartford allowed the ball to go in Doyle left unmarked both he and Albert DEA were there DEA last year’s Golden Boot winner with 20 goals for riverhounds but he’s the leading scorer for Rhode Island with three but he hasn’t scored in two months last goal was March 30th for the man they called Chico that came against Tampa Bay there’s JJ Williams he’s called for the foul disbelieving as I believe that’s Tristan HJ who goes down one chance one goal for Rhode Island 15 goal they gave an assist on the doy goal to JJ Williams his first point since joining Rhode Island here’s Beckford on the right sends it it’s deflected it’ll be a throw for Harford Buck Master to take it from the near sideline I want to see better angles on the passes not to the player that was straight to the player maybe a little bit behind by cidu player into space for him to run onto Chapman beat to the ball by by Klay holstead he sends it over the touch Line near the Harford bench so Buckmaster will have the honors on the throw in again hardford three and two here at Trinity Health this year they won their first two against Birmingham and Miami and then after succumbing to two losses to San Antonio in the switchbacks were two- One winners over Monterey Bay last week to end the five game losing Street Vegas in the direction of Williams uses his chest very adroitly get it back to Williams spins away from Mack and Giller now panot sent towards the box and goes off hod for the first corner of the night for there second corner of the night for Rhode Island and it’s dangerous because we’ve seen the 19-year-old from Cambridge Jack Pine otu do some magical things this just his fourth game after coming from alone from New England Revolution who he played once for this year from the left of hon hio headed up and over well he’s given a goal kick it’s either a free kick or a corner and it’s not a free kick so it has to be a corner because it came off Tristan Hodge last no wonder that Koo Smith and the rest of the Rhode Island players are like sorry here’s a replay yeah clearly off Hodge hord will take it though but it shouldn’t have been athletic play the ball back Jordan Scarlet Captain space for buck master nice one touch to Beckford a little too far and the DAR goes down but that hit him in the face suggesting there might be a little finger or something trailing arm in the face ball goes up at the STS gentleman makes a nice play our referee Luis Diego a Royo we go over to take a look he took charge of harford’s nil-nil draw against Louisville last season there’s only three yellow cards I thought he was really good just the yeah it’s a flailing arm there’s nothing in that just if he’s caught him in the eye then it’s obiously an issue for no Dary coming into your screen the head athletic trainer theres raywal as you look at the Rhode Island supporters here tonight 200 strong Orford athletic would like to thank noova pasta for supporting our goals for meals program for every for athletic go scor this year the pasta will donate meals to the help the fight against food insecurity in our [Music] community so no Dar is up he’ll have to come out for a minute and be waved back in it’ll be a throw in F Buck [Music] basard Dar not real pleased with desan Beckford who doesn’t want to hear about it here you see Brendon Burke this is an opportunity for Hartford against the 10 men one of the center backs is is off but so there’s another example of Bravery they’ve gone back the way rather than identifying that they’re without a center back they’ve gone back the way and they’ve allowed them back on turnball confid and header back towards Koke Vegas each team or rather island with two shots One On Target Herford with one shot looking for their first On Target shot last week Herford had four shots on target nine shots inside the box so they were able to Cave the Monterey Bay defense nice play by hjj m andila fouled by Williams this is a Rhode Island team that will use the body try to force the official to make [Music] calls Buckmaster pressed momentarily by the goal scorer Doyle Harford very methodical in the buildup now Beckford has switched he’s on the right and Galina playing up front on the left that ball stolen away by Rhode Island here’s DEA on the Conor sends it over this side knocked Away by Buckmaster it’ll be a throw in for Rhode Island right in front of their [Applause] supporters see if they get some length on this Scarlet gets a head on it second aadu Rhode Island maintains possession now Dar who appears to be none the worse for the we after his knock karif Yao from Montreal Quebec has MLS experience with Montreal and Vancouver Pou address is Beckford gets the One Touch back overruns the ball and taken away by Scarlet room to run for Beckford up the right channel regains control converg on and knocked out by an un rushing Steven turn really good from Des Shane Beckford but that will started by good work from a SEO I want to see him in that position I don’t want to see him playing the double six and a deep line midfielder along with mackim Gila when Hartford are coming forward he was the one that said set that up there were four Rhode Island players and if Beckford who had four around them can find a way to release the ballord might be him with a bit of success Tristan hjge triggering the corner from the left of Po Vegas at the end of the West stands F frell trying to get it out it’s the score Joe frell from Tristan hog in the 24th minute we are tied at [Music] on perfect execution and Brass finanza fills the air in Harford it’s always great a when you identify something and B when they’ve been working on something 5 10 minutes ago what they’re trying to do is they’re trying to get Joe farell near post for the flick on for the knock on or for the direct attempt to goal perfect delivery remember the last Hartford corner from this side it was a five iron and it needed to be a lob wedge this was the perfect delivery near post flick we’re level for Joe FAL his first goal since September 30th of last year when he was in the employee of the Pittsburgh River House against FC Tulsa and who was his teammate in attack for Pittsburgh Albert daqua Scarlet nice job to get the ball ahead here’s hod yellow Tak it down by Clay holstead it has to be a yellow so they look the USL can’t arrange or Pro or the referee Department can’t arrange to have calls to explain decisions and then not give a yellow card for that a tug of the Jersey is one of the four main things that they want to basically see eliminated from the game stopping a promising attack that is every single box checked and no wonder every person on the Hartford bench and the players are still around him the danger here is that Farrell could end up in the book when the referee hasn’t done his job do your job do it better quick restart to Beckford marked on the near Side by Steven Turnbull played up for Chapman and that’s going to be a corner for after Mary bar knocks it out fourth quarter for Halford their last one resulted in their first goal of the match it’s it’s not just Joe Farrell standing still there’s movement as well and it’s the movement that’s hard to pick up what Joe Farrell’s trying to do at the near post is just get there ahead of the Rhode Island player he managed it last time and don’t be surprised if they try the same thing again kifa Yao trying to get physical with the 6-2 feral raising his hands to indicate he’s getting bumped around Marcus EPS in there as where far post headed up in the air and off the sweets it’ll be a goal kick for Rhode Island Harford athletic would like to thank Lux bondon green Jeweler since 1898 celebrating life’s special moments oh for Joe frell a special moment his first goal with that atic and once again after a goal Harford continues to press the attack EPS who’s been so active the last three weeks place it back for Hajj looking to serve it instead goes to EPs and they play it back to Beverly mck and Gila this is a resilient side Joe last week conceded first went on to win when this week conceded first what’s the reaction good reaction from Harford absolutely now you don’t want to keep falling behind all the time but it’s a terrific answer played up ahead EPS chases it down watched on The Far Side by Colin Smith taken away by holin DEA chest it down spun around by m and that’s foul what I liked about on that fr from a Harford perspective that diagonal ball they’re going to have a lot of Joy with that I’d like to see it from left to right as well because that was right to left for EPS this is a clear foul from mailla no issues whatsoever did a little doy D with him holstead pan odou trying to create space now Doyle heads towards the goal line saved in by Harford but turnwell is up puts it on goal and Ed and hio comes up with the save his first of the night yeah but once again Steven turo getting forward obviously with colen Smith in the lineup today Steven turmo playing on the left hand side but loves to cut inside on that right foot control with the left couple of touches and then the effort was okay but comfortable for the goalie Turnbull has scored with both his left foot and his right foot this year had a left footed goal against Las Vegas lights and a right footed goal against Sacramento Republic I’m reliably informed the term for someone that’s equally good on both feet is Ambi pedal really yes see the thing about working with you is is I’m so much better educated you learn much of the stuff is useless theth exactly you learn things you’ve got no interest in but at least you get taught andena can’t catch up with it so it’ll be a goal kick so Doyle from JJ Williams in the fourth minute Joe farell off the corner kick from Tristan Hajj in the 24th and we’re level at one in this first ever game between these teams who are separated by about 90 minutes along with Mark Donaldson I’m Jody Ambrosio Sir Thomas of stanwicks our producer Bobby Kaplan our director and the rest of our talented Power Station crew good job by backing Gilla here’s a see a do Anderson throws it ahead for Beckford little too far and taken off the boot by Frank noar now pantio lot of room to dribble shot is blocked Scarlet selling out to block that and Galina 1 V one with Smith plays it for the overlapping Marcus EPS EPS looks to go back with it to Tristan a reset the attack Chapman in the middle I think he was played on by tble and the ball will sail over the goal line so turble is the one there that played him on and I was going to mention stepen turble because last week from right back one of the tools that we have access to gives you the average position of the player and they try and make him like an inverted midfielder to get more involved in the game but he does have his moments where he switches off he did there but Hartford couldn’t capitalize tonight’s WTNH youth soccer teams of the match glastenbury U10 and Vernon soccer club we welcome back along with the rest of the 5500 fans to Trinity Health stadium and all of you watching on our various Outlets ESPN plus my tv9 wctx wtnh.com Harford trying to link up the attack Hodge hemmed in on the far sideline gets it back to the goal scor Joe Farrell and he plays it up field and K Vegas will stop it before it goes over the goal line to restart the attack little tweak to what Hartford are doing right now and it’s very fluent I like the fact that that they can do that but it’s j Chapman’s position because this can be a 4-2 31 but can also be a 433 there’s a lot of movement in this heart for the tank ball played up ahead for dequa scarlet gets their first controlled by Doyle into the box sliding Tackle by aadu nice job by Anderson brilliant it’s a brilliant challenge but he didn’t need to make it because Beverly ma andila did not have a good tackle just before that it was outstanding from aayu and hopefully Dole will be okay but Beverly mangila that was no example of a proper tackle thankfully for him his teammate helped him out har for trainer Mike Diaz out there as well let’s get a [Music] look that’s the tackle it was just before that when mangila should have done better sore one there hopefully both players are okay by the way just before that was a really good clearance by that man there Jordan Scarlet the ball was coming over his head DEA was running in behind he had to get it right and he got a really really good touch interesting thing here while you’re watching these pictures is that Brendan Burke the Hartford coach is having a right good chat with Marcus EPs and I think you got it spot on Joel I think EPS has been outstanding in the last three weeks he’s given them that energy and coming in from the left hand side it seems to suit so both him and and Galina have been spoken to by Brandon Burke tonight’s match presented by Trinity Health of New England as we celebrate Community Health night visit Trinity Health of New England of neorg to learn more that’s Trinity Health of.org as you look into the athletic supporters section across the way in the East stands what a beautiful night for a game of football it’s a to warm for your Scottish blood though not look we can’t complain being Scottish when it’s too cold and when it’s too warm right you want the Best of Both Worlds exactly what would a perfect weather day be for a Scotsman 50° Blue Sky crisp walking weather not for you with your beach house no which has been used extensively so far and it’s not even summary f called onj Chapman you know what Joe apart from what in my opinion it’s totally subjective was a dreadful no yellow card call referee’s been good so far and he was good last time out y here last year now Turnbull good press by Marcus eps is Kos Smith has a word with AR3 milar sagu frell steals it says he knocked it off and he did off the road Island player so it be a Harford throwing here in the 35th minute of a 1-1 duel it makes a change for the fourth official to turn left doesn’t it have a word with the a away bench the visitor’s bench spends a lot of time keeping tabs on a a lively Harford bench showing the you want to see him in the game right here’s Buckmaster log up field off of the visitors so chap looks to get it quickly I’d like to see more from Mei in Galina it’s bit of quiet first 35 minutes for harford’s leading goal score it has because they’ve not given him any service that’s better Ste by frell or rather by Buckmaster 19 not 15 EPS with a little slide of foot they control it back to frell as they look to change the field they use Mack and Gill in the middle to link up to Tristan Hodge here’s Beckford plays it back not a heavy press by the Rhode Island front three DEA Lo Doyle and JJ Williams That’s not dea’s game Harford can have a fair bit of possession there it’s what they do in the Midfield area in the central Midfield area say is playing more advanced than M Gila which I prefer than when the two of them are together when Harford put the ball here’s space for Chapman gets it back but angalina can’t control play Holsten the former University of Kentucky St takes it off his boot tussle on the far side at Midfield Harford possession tell you what having spent a week in Kentucky for the golf recently there’s quite the Rivalry between the college football teams there Kentucky and Louisville used to be one-sided in favor of the Phill but Kentucky has gotten much better playing in that SEC nice been a dribbling Harford possession Beckford plays it through Chapman sends it towards EPS voles it over the goal he’s stuck between knowing what to do whether to head it whether to volley whether to take a touch and the indecision proved costly but again good play on the left hand side by Jay Chapman and a couple of minutes ago we talking about Beverly manga’s inability to make a tackle that was poor from Rhode Island to allow Chapman in there does he go for the header I think he’s the defender just done enough Steven turno to put him up that’s a half chance for Harford off the long goal kick by kok Vegas JJ Williams with a lateral header it looks like they’ve just moved JJ Williams not not Central but right of Center to allow more space for the fullback to get forward and to help daa in the direction of eps Turnbull gets a head on at first nice move by Doyle slide tackle Jordan Scarlet starts the counter caps with runners in the middle Chapman for Buckmaster gets it back to EPS Marcus had a reverse fields to get it he plays it back to aadu yeah Buck Master slow to get up here as well we’re even at one here in the 39th minute of play this first of two meetings this year between Harford and Rhode Island now Beckford in the Box good bit of Defense there by kifa Yao really good but there’s an example for Hartford to attract Colin Smith to the ball and then to get the Harford player in behind you’re going to get some Joy with that with a strong effort by Beverly Mack and Gila see a do on the Run V and Galina V one looking for support plays it back to bus Buckmaster and back further to M and Gila they’ll reset the attack as we approach the 40th minute of a very entertaining first half of soccer Beckford looking to take Collin Smith takes him to the goal line shoots it through the box before SE can get there it’s cleared out Vegas sorry Mark po Vegas furious with this defense yeah and quite rightly so there’s your example of your midfielder a c do gambling he didn’t there and he would have had an attempt on goal if he had bang the ball off Turnbull it’s been a great response from Harford it really has well much like last week yep very similar there just winning that 50/50 Chapman towards the Box aheer oh punched out by Koke Vegas he denies engelina a highlight real save by Koke Vegas who made USL team of the week last week with his three saves in the loose city game that was a beautifully set up ball now Turnbull good pressure by eps offord will regain possession you see a dude for M and Gila who is easily recognizable by the distinctive hairstyle that’s a good ball played up ahead and Galina comes out to it here’s Mei fends it through oh slide tackle knocks it away at the last second of the odd rushing to Shan Beckford right there’s a lot to get to in this first of all Frank nari if he’s hurt then he’s hurt I don’t think he is it’s never a foul I think he’s just trying to attract the referee’s attention that was not a foul it was a poor bit of Defending but something that wasn’t poor defending was Colin Smith absolutely phenomenal he has denied to Shane Benford the goal it’s never a foul in a million years now if he’s twisted his KN or something which I don’t think he has cuz he’s getting up now and I just think that’s one of those oh have made a mistake try and buy a free kick no danger but brilliant defending from Colin Smith right side corner by Jay Chapman that’s already five corners for Hartford in the first 42 minutes Yao watching Ferell closely far post and Galina heads it back in knocked over the goal line by Ma andila it’ll be a goal kick oh he’s changed his Corner changed his mind one thing I would say about mailla there don’t run back pretending that it was a goal kick try and buy a corner yeah that’s what nari tried to do a couple minutes ago to get a free k Harford athletic would like to thank our founding partner The Travelers thanks for travelers presenting partner of our community ticket program children from underserved communities throughout Greater Hartford are able to come to the matches free of char Tristan Hodge whose last corner kick resulted in a goal headed out out played out and chased out by Mark Doyle in a foot race with Chapman and Chapman slides to knock it out look at the Harford Ben all on their feet applauding the effort of Chapman ASO those in the stands this is a super atmosphere and the game is lived up to the billing in this first ever meeting between these New England Rivals kifa Yao back to Klay holstead in the middle plays it up to an open Turnbull creeping up in the left back it goes to Turnbull he’s got an angle sends it towards the box but cleared out and it’ll be a corner kick the third of the night for Rhode Island I would think we would not have a plethora of stoppage time here well there was the stoppage after the goal with the knock but yeah maybe a couple of minutes pen O2 left footer from the right of hon hi that went out before it came back never he never made it back in the field so it’ll be a goal kick for Harford as we approach the 4 fifth minute we’ll learn the brignol vineyard stoppage time shortly meanwhile hen and hio well the preliminary would say I have no idea what I’m talking about there a preliminary is six minutes kick by her the Chapman gets AE on Second Ball taken by Rhode Island vatu can’t get it fan on by AA D and then he’s tripped and the foul is called it’s one of these free kicks you get and you love when it’s your team but you hate when it’s the opposition sixth foul on Rhode Island hardford has only been whistled for two he’s already on his way down there’s a little bit of contact yeah he was a boxer he wouldn’t last long in the sport Scarlet’s been good today and he sent this one forward play up ahead headed down throw in Harford Chapman eps1 touches it back Chapman tried to send it through Klay holstead that doesn’t work Bri no Vineyard stoppage time there are six minutes of stoppage time there have been stoppages uh okay I would have uh I would have lost up back well there was a couple of times the trainers had to come out look at he he is the sweeper keeper coming all the way out of the go about midway between the goal line in the Midfield line to trigger the play but Harford gets ahead on it and Galina tries to come back and help and Doyle knocks it over the West touchline Albert decoy was the main signing he’s one of the highest paid players in the league but one of the most important signings could be the man between the sticks K Vegas to go from La Liga to come to USL that’s a coup to get him [Music] here spent six years with La Liga he was the the first player they signed back in November the two-year veteran of San Diego 32117 and 18 with 15 clean sheets in 67 games that’s a lot of numbers right exactly you can make of them what you will and we do as commentators don’t we yes we do we can twist STS to suit our absolutely sure it’s like in golf you can do that long throw by Turnbull good Header by JJ Williams but Harford quickly clears it away oh nice bit of dribbling by turn he’s a good player gets it to hold stat into the middle the dangerous pan otu plays it head on the right for Colin Smith and I see a dude like a burst of lightning comes out to steal it and starts to run up field a head on the left by Beckford plays it back oh PNY otu and hjge Collide it’s going to be last Touch by Jack panosu you can see in the upper left corner your screen we’re in the third of six minutes of stoppage time now that six minutes could become more if need be it would become less a minimum all there’s Doyle possession a hold stat Penny U’s got the ball on his boot a lot Smith sprinting with hjj just shoves Hodge and it goes over the goal line it’ll be a goal kick for hardford watching kind of there the coach of Rhode Islands have to say was that not shoulder toh shoulder which would be perfectly legal but was a little bit too excessive there I believe in hockey would have been called the cross and a couple of minutes in the bin yes two minutes in the S bin G six tonight done in Florida for the Rangers glad I’m here I can so I can concentrate on this three minutes in the stoppage time with the game tied at one on goals by Doyle and ferrell might not have had them on your bingo card Jay Chapman slow to get up after a Midfield Collision Williams goes down like he was shot they say play on don’t mind that in the middle of the par don’t mind a battle in a derby like this Buckmaster steps in Stand aidu has X just a we bit too much Pace woo boy I see you do he is all over the park tonight Pou in the middle has Williams to his right gives it to JJ Williams sends it on goal save made by H I love the intensity of this game from both teams absolutely fantastic they’ve just got to be careful they started off with two deep Ling sixes then a seu pushed forward like vonel did last week just got to be careful that both don’t go forward and they leave exposed the two center backs we’ll he from vanon casil at half time he sat down with Mark and I a couple of weeks ago a lovely guy great conversation hopefully back next week here’s EPS Chapman in the middle back to EPS overlapping the Buckmaster Reese tries to send it towards the Box no Darcy into the sweets another quarter kick there is an example sorry Joe there’s an example of what I was talking about earlier about an angled pass that is the perfect pass don’t play to to his feet play it to where he’s going to run to so he doesn’t have to break his Step results in a corner now much better from Harford they have been outstanding since they go back into this game seventh corner of the night Tristan Hajj mosing over to the ball this could be the last play of stoppage time only time will tell once again frell back in theila and Scarlet all up trying to use their size and width to Advantage far post headed out and cleared off the volley by Doyle throw in Hartford Brendan Burke in the air fourth official Brian caneta here’s Buckmaster gets a word of advice from assistant coach eron wheeler Buckmaster in the middle and Delena back to Chapman plays it through but Beckford stopped running Vegas gets it and we have reached halftime a most entertaining 45 minutes of soccer and they sold out Trinity Health Stadium the visitors took little time to get on the board in the fourth minute it was Mark Doyle from JJ Williams in front but then 20 minutes later Tristan Hodge’s perfect Corner

be part of the ownership group of the new Brooklyn FC team which kicks off in 2025 well unfortunately for Harford Thomas Vil unable to play tonight due to personal reasons but Mark and I had a chance to sit down and talk with the Frenchmen a couple of weeks ago Thomas what was it like the El Paso game this year your first game back after being out for so long it had to be an a moell night yeah it was was a blessing cuz I’ve been struggling for a year and a year and a half before that um so I was just going out there a little bit nervous obviously because I didn’t know where I was uh physically and even like was I going to be fast enough uh to play that game but he went really well uh the team had a really good performance what the shut out so everything was perfect the first big challenge you probably think about and go how many would it be but when you come through through unscathed and everything is okay after the injury and you’re you’re fine and you know it’s going to hold up what’s that feeling like um for the longest time I thought I was done I thought theery would done heal at on CU I couldn’t even work through my B uh eight months after the the surgery so I thought I was done and then I started build up and I felt more and more confident and I was really uh consistent with my recovery and my rehab so the feeling to be able to just train four weeks straight was great and then I can go three pre to was great and then I’m studed the first game of the season so yeah that was I was really good stolen by Van kazil here’s Mei and Galina into the box [Applause] oh Mei and Galina somersault Q up Rass banza we’re even at one pronunciations as commentators Joseph are are difficult we do our research we do we we do our notes which everybody does it but there are certain Sportsmen and women out there that when ask to pronounce their own name for the game notes sometimes are a little bit of a rascal and they give the wrong one so what’s the actual pronunciation the proper pronunciation of of your name because if it was on a Scrabble board it’ be worth a lot of points um you can say V it V is it yeah but before we came on air we had the discussion about Tom or Tomas so what’s your pronunciation over here and when you go back to the the north of France where you grew up how is your pronunciation there so in France it would be Tom butan America like Thomas yeah Thomas yeah like the American way like how are we how are we getting on about Thomas I think we’re going to be Tas a little bit of a Souther not Tas thas yeah how many of your teammates here could you have a conversation with in French uh actually quite a lot cuz we have some people from uh Congo one player from card one player from Camaro um and some Americans that took uh frch classes so so sometimes we speak French too that’s pretty cool how many of sorry Jo how many of the Americans you think might have a chance of speaking French with you uh J Chapman Canadian Canadians that’s close enough uh Joi Joi is pretty good I think his grandma was a French teacher so his French is actually I was surprised he spoke to in French that in that that was good you’re a veteran guy than what you you you you’re an old you’re an old guy he’s said someone else is a b today yes I know that but you you’ve played in the league you’ve had success what is your leadership role out in this team yeah I think we have a lot of leaders in the team um and I’ve been out of the game last year so I let the guys that play last year take take charge but I try to do my part give uh advice especially for the guy who speaks French and a a little bit younger so I’m a little bit of one how to say between the coaching staff and the youngster um well yeah that’s my R Ling from now who’s in charge of the music and the lock room for the game uh we have different guys blackf is on top of it J Chapman Marcus would you if you if you you’re in large what will you play it h that’s a good question um are you French hip hop or not okay not a lot of guys know about it so I I keep it quiet well Thomas we hope you keep making beautiful music on the field thank you thank you very much if

independent provider of office Technology Solutions visit my ldi.com for more information so the game fairly even statistically even on the scoreboard coach what correct would you make for each team mhm they need to involve Albert daa more you and I were Ching off air during the break you mentioned what seven touches seven touches in the first half not enough now you don’t know how badly he got injured on the goal where he came up limping but still get him the ball doesn’t matter involve him more same for Mi and Galina for Harford arguably their two best players and they’ve probably been the two players with the fewest touches in the first half from a Harford perspective more of the same it’s always difficult when there’s the interjection of the interval and the stoppage but they’ve got to just try and maintain the upper hand that they have but be careful because on the counter they have a lot of talent Jack panayotou is really good they cannot allow him just to Glide his way through the Hartford Midfield both teams stay the same second 45 plus underway actually no the old Hartford athletic midfielder Colin mlin in for Colin Smith yeah they’re playing uh Klay holstead right back so that Conor can go into Midfield Colin mcglen back in Action last week he had missed five weeks with an injury that’s after he had a sit out of one game supension for a red card against Charleston on the sixth of the month of April Colin in talking to the Rhode Island FC media team said this is it going to be a Bittersweet night for him he has such great memories of his four years in Harford only Danny Barrera who is available to play tonight on the Harford bench has played more games for the blue and green of course a lot of the games that Conor played at Harford were a center back weren’t they last year yeah and funnily enough I remember doing a game with you when they put him into defensive Midfield he must have played about 10 or 12 games at Center back it was the first time he’ played there and he was like a fish out of water and it wasn’t his fault because he was asked to play a position albe it his favored position but he basically got into the mindset of being a center back and they’ve ended they ended up either taking him off or moving him back but he’s where he wants to be now L up field in the direction of dequa up on the left side it’s Doyle he has the Rhode Island goal Penny 02 at the 18 shot is blocked hod gave him no space and then panou take him down speaking about JJ Williams in the first half and I thought they were a little bit more effective when he was more Central and it’s interesting that they’ve started him in the second half in a more Central position he just offers a little bit more in there he’s he can be isolated a bit too much out wide Tristan Haj slow to get up so it’ll be a free kick H and hio top of the circle launches it up field two goalies who are both quite effective here’s Turnbull the attacking defenseman Scarlet slows it down momentarily now Doyle back it goes to mcglenn of course for Conor he really doesn’t know many people out there mck and Gila and Tristan Hodge the only two he played with who were in The Harford rotation Barrera didn’t play a lot last year and we’ve only seen Kyle Williams once this year slidy Tackle by mcglen friend the Flynn was looking for a booking or for a foul there here’s Doyle daa left footed shot squibs off his foot it’ll be a goal kick for Harford yeah just looking at Brendan Burke just now and he’s having words with the fourth official in his opinion he feels it was a bit of a scissor Challenge and he’s he’s just thrown his hand to the air exasperated as if to to say well why wasn’t that a free kick you can usually get a reaction from the player if it’s incredulity frustration anger then it probably is a free kick but the Shane Beckford just got straight back up and got on with it it shouldn’t have anything to do with the reaction to the player and it probably borders on yeah that should have been a free kick but just got to be careful don’t want to get him another yellow card here’s DEA Gets behind Scarlet Scarlet tackles it away DEA sprawls down they say play H that is a magnificent tackle but Rod Allen maintains possession iara gives to mcglinn pressed by Chapman so he plays it back it’s one of these you m time it you give away a penalty if you’re not going for the ball and you m time it you give away a penalty and you get sent off it’s going to be perfect once you leave the ground you’ve got to make sure you get it play stopped as they attend to Albert Deepa don’t miss our next home match Saturday June 15th at 700 p.m. as we celebrate our mascot Dylan’s birthday with an ice cream giveaway visit Harford athletic.com ticks to get your tickets today can I have your ice cream that night since you won’t be here I’ve already promised it to somebody else the ice cream yeah thanks your partners are four here’s Vegas over to kifa Yao my daughter Joe she’s six oh I’ll give her mine please come on you didn’t say that here’s daa magically okay and Scarlet with an athletic play to clear it out of danger momentarily most of the second half has been played in the Rhode Island offensive end here’s a shot towards goal by Logan Hi Barrow cuts it off before it can move across the face of the goal so their starting positions are more advanced which is certainly helping them and their game has upped substantially so that’s the difference so far far it’s there’s two things one this is very similar to the way that the first half started and two this game is very similar to last Fridays against mon Bay yep Romario Williams going down to warm up wonder if he’s going to be harford’s first sub Beckford grabbed around the waist by pan otou 12 games played two starts in two years with the revs called creative in the final third and Brent Burke told us during the week you have to keep track of him at all times yeah he’s a quality player blade up ahead Harford on the attack here’s Reese Buckmaster plays it out on the side Marcus EPS One V one outside the box Cuts towards the middle Buckmaster plays it back to EPS slips off his boot taken away by Rhode Island we’re even at one Mark Doyle in the fourth minute Joe Ferrell in the 24th and again these are two teams that have only scored 11 goals a piece this season so you would figure goals will be in a Prem it’s also no surprise for a team that have drawn seven games that it’s tied 1-1 right now Turnbull out on the left for Doyle plays it back for Steven Turnbull the chip DEA was there but IO beat him to the ball yeah the assistant on this near side just pointing out that had there been a touch he would have been offside and the flag would have gone out that’s good officiating on this near Side by Nick SE so what they’ve done they’ve moved JJ Williams Central and they basically swapped him with Jack panayotou and Williams movement has been better than panayotou so it’s given Tristan Hodge a different look in the second half EPS can’t control on the east side line East touch line so it’s thrown in there is the aforementioned JJ Williams good job by Mack and Gilla to slow him down and off Williams over the far touch line in front of the support section it’s basically two teams playing the exact same formation right now so 42 31 for Rhode Island as far as the two in front of the four are concerned one sitting just in front of the other same as Harford here’s daqua P O2 knocked Away by Scarlet who has been omnipresent out there tonight ball bounces over Eng Galen said he goes down but kif ya looked like he didn’t do anything to him no he’s going to be stronger than Galina Mar iara another former Pittsburgh riverhound player on this expansion team plays it back to holstead now penny2 iar’s shot is blocked keeps it alive into the box cleared out Hodge looking to counter long ball up field EPS in a foot race with Turnbull Turnbull with a better body position play it back to C Vegas it’s actually not a bad ball to get you out of trouble to try and turn the opposition diagonal over the top keeps the fullback on his toes against whether it’s

happened last week when Mi and Galina had a shot from a little bit further out and it took a deflection when that ball was deflected off the shot and Hanan rero kind of just didn’t do much he worried that the same might happen again this week instead a corner rather than a goal fourth corner of the night pano2 will take it from the right of henan hio in swinger good position Ferell gets to it before DEA iaro plays it across to hold St into the 18 He borrows up Ferell goes sprawling but he gets it to Beck in a race he’s got in Galina two on three and a slide tackle beautifully done that time by Mar iarov to negate the Harford threat and allow Pittsburgh or rather allow Rhode Island to start the counter it’s been a terrific match thus far the pace of the Run of play a little slower to start the second half and again much like the start of the game it’s been Rhode Island dominating the ball he’s onside daa On The Run gets it turns he’s got Hero at his Mercy but he tried to play it across and it’s cleared by Reese Buckmaster Brenden Burke canag all he wants that run was perfectly timed by Albert dequa and at the other end here’s Ed Galina and the flag is up close to Midfield let’s see if Ivan who’s doing the replays for us tonight let’s see if we can get either of these two keep tabs that’s clearly offside yeah clearly not even close dequa for me timed his run to Perfection play towards Doyle up on the left one V one with Buckmaster plays it into the box Buckmaster will play it over the goal line on the east side with the touch line on the east side throw in yeah he took a touch there Joe so he knew he had to to get rid of it to try and prevent the corner it’ll be Turnbull going over to take it former star at Stonybrook University one of the better attacking right backs although with the absence of Gabriel Alvis we’ve seen him at the left back position tonight he’s just a good player versatile he’s a threat in both boxes good defensively but can pop up with a a goal or two as well Williams double team Mack and Gila voles it out of danger Turnbull sends it right back into the box hjj heads it Beckford with space cuts to the middle dribbles around and drops it back to the captain Jordan Scarlet even at one 59th minute first ever meeting between these teams who are separated by roughly 90 miles the closest rivalry in USL Championship although a rivalry has to come organically you can’t say a series is a rivalry and then it’s a rivalry I can tell you the story of a football coach at yuk got that tried to create a rivalry with Central Florida which is one of the silliest things ever foul in the middle of the pitch Buckmaster we’ve not had a yellow card tonight should have had but we haven’t and this is right exactly this is a referee Luis Diego Royo who dealt out eight in his only USL match of the year as Mark Doyle gimple gets upo Smith talking to his assistant Dave McKay this a dangerous potential here pano2 and Doyle both in position but I think it’s Penny otu who’s going to send it up Yao is off sides the play starts here’s the chip anded Eder no Dary caught by hio who gets it going quickly Vegas w out of the goal to head it Keeper’s been hurt at the other end he just got caught on the follow through hero yeah my eyes like yours were drawn to the ball cuz obviously the goalkeeper at the other end was way out his box and did well so I didn’t see if it was him kicking it clear and catching someone Rano look like he hit no Dar flourish is proud to fuel Harford a with their healthy delicious food let them

here at Trinity Health Chapman plays it towards angalina but there’s the omnipresent turnball aadu who got the start for Famas van kazil who’s unable to play tonight due to personal reasons comes off the first two assist game of his USL career he was named to the league team of the week for week 12 frell just plays it towards the Box Vegas taking his Todd looks like he put a foot into it instead W rolls it out to ya open on the right clay hola in the middle for Williams tackled off the ball Beckford [Applause] it’ll be a throw in for hardford kind of glad that Brenden Burke doesn’t wear a blood pressure monitor or a heart rate monitor and uh or a microphone or a microphone if the results were given to his doctor I think he’d be uh totally getting the passion see what it means to him but don’t know if he’s doct to be too happy once again Yao gets to the ball first stolen a see a do he’s taken off the ball by no Darcy good defending good play by Frank no Darcy and then Chapman with a tackle on a see a do for Chapman in the box back heeld for abs clear it over the far sideline it’s a brilliant move from Harford it really is draws the Applause from the bench as well just the awareness of Jay chapmanford gets it back in quickly Anderson a SEO towards the far post nobody there but Amber color jerseys Hol that plays it ahead pan otou back to help angalina with the press and forces Yao to get the ball back to the keeper giveway to Hodge Tristan plays it left here’s Beckford in the Box oh wasted Opportunity by desen Beckford you don’t see that often from the Jamaican he’s better on the right hand side and when he cut inside they on his right foot he just he got it all wrong he could have played that first time he didn’t right so he’s taken the touch and he’s made a mess of it but Hartford are able to exploit Rhode Island are trying to play their way out of trouble I don’t mind that if you’ve got the players to do it and you can do it you’re going to make mistakes but you have moves like this that can get you forward quickly Dole with room to run on the left drops it back to old friend Conor mlin now Turnbull presses upar Under Pressure back to [Music] mcglenn once again two teams who have both scored 11 goals this season that’s near the bottom of the league sent towards the six push and we’ve got a push in the box so it’ll be hardford ball I love um one of the flags and hopefully we’ll get a chance to see this so in the the singing section of Hartford obviously Connecticut known New Haven area and further north for its Pizza there’s an Italian flag with just the word Pizza across it whereas Rhode Island’s probably I don’t know better known for chowder yes definitely you prefer New England clam chowder or Rhode Island CH I prefer no chowder thank you I prefer tomato soup fouls are 125 as Romario Williams looks like he’s ready to enter the match wonder if he’s going to come in for Beford to be honest I think you could take either of the front two off I don’t think they’ve never comes off he hasn’t come out of the match this year speaking of Beckford lays it up to enina Mei in the Box tackled away plays it back Beckford draws a convergence of amber color Rhode Island players and The Possession turns over what think about this Rhode Island backline Mark they they’re very deliberate they don’t panic easily now room to run on the far side turbo was looking for help bar placs it back to mclin up on the left it’s Mark Doyle who scored in the fourth minute Joe frell in the 24th off a corner from Tristan Hodge and that’s where we stand space in the middle for kifa Yao holstead pressed by Beck goes back to ya g a chest right now Cas is slow down considerably and it goes over the near touchline Westfield bag proud to support Connecticut customers and crowds cheering for Heartford athletic Westfield Bank where better banking is all about online at Westfield bank.com so we’ve got an injury and it looks like the night is over for Beckford anyways the Shane Williams will come in and take his place third time this year that Williams has come off the bench for Harford yeah he was the starter to begin with Romario Williams and then last uh last game they went with the the pace up front now they’re they’re going with the pace and the power that’s the first time this year that Beckford has been subed out of the game no that’s not right he’s been subbed out before he started all 11 games so you bring Williams in where did he spot him oh through the middle he’s banged through the middle but what you do you have options now around them because it’s where they play MIT and Galina they’ll drop them a little bit further back if they want to keep the 42 31 you could go with two up top go four 1 32 there’s options now but there’s a lot of options for Brendon Burke for a lot of these players Scarlet steps in front of JJ Williams and kicks sails over the near touch going it’ll be a throw in just got to be careful there Jo just got to be careful with Reese Buckmaster because can’t get caught too far out to allow Mark Doyle a lot of the ball on the Rhode Island left good anticipation that time by Buck Master to get it before daa could lay a boot on it I see you do up the left side over the near touch line throw in for Rhode Island [Applause] shots 98 in favor of Hartford shots on target 3-2 in favor of Rhode Island the number that matters is the goals and we’re even at one here comes Rhode Island on a counter it’s Turnbull with room now wheelson looks for help plays it up ahead intended for iara that’s knocked Away by Buck master here’s ramario Williams fresh as a daisy for en Galina Vegas comes out to the 18 to knock it away good Anticipation by the veteran keeper kok [Applause] Vegas this game certainly being played at a pace where if there is a next goal that would appear to be the game-winning goal Rhode Island much more deliberate EPS called for the foul on iara quick restart for Rhode Island now iara playing up will work back and drop it all the way back to kifa Yao at Midfield holstead with a channel on the right in the middle pan otou who’s been pretty well kept in check plays ah head on the left for the overlapping Turnbull gets past EPS puts it in the middle and it sails through it’ll be a corner that all K about because Hartford gave easy possession away in the middle of the park if you’re one up one off the person off has got to get back and help out you cannot allow yourself to be a two-on-one against that’s what Hartford had against them there and it’s resulted in Rhode Island Corner they’ve got to be more disciplined in the attack when defending fifth corner for Rhode Island it’ll be Penny out to to trigger from the left of henan hio who has stopped Two Shots tonight far post Eder goes back shot drill over the goal you know what time it is don’t you that’s it chop time chop is is proud to be an official catering partner of Harford athletic shout their mission is to make healthy eating exciting for all people from classic Cravings to seasonal collaborations chopped offers of salads warm bows wraps and more eat like an athlete with chop looks like we’re going to see Noah fuson who it’s started all 11 games before tonight called on to play for the first time for Rhode Island the match even at one 72nd [Applause] minute whistle sounds fuson will come in for Jack pen otou not been as effective since they moved him out to the right hand side so he makes way so fusan who’s got a goal and three assists former member of Columbus Crew 2 how do you do onto the pitch Harford with a direct from distance match even at one pretty evenly played I would say mark from start to finish each team has had moments of domination HJ serves it punched out by Vegas offside and Vegas is down Harford is off sides anyways and K Vegas the 28-year-old from Spain is still down in the Box just going back to your earlier point I think it’s been very even I think Rhode Island had the better of the game for probably the first 20 minutes or so I thought Hartford had the better of the first half after that and since the second half is has got underway Rhode Island have had more of the ball really done as much as they would have liked but they’ve done better than they did towards the end of of the first half along with Mark Donaldson I’m jod D Ambrosio Tom stanwicks our producer Bobby CH our director Power Station crew doing their usual superb job here at trendy hel holstead intended for Williams Ferell gets there Scarlet is going to get called for a push against chicoa so possession for Rhode Island iaro will trigger the restart then they say slow it down get to move the ball up a little bit instead it be Conor mlin over the ball this time down on the touch line Brendan bur’s remaining seated and it’s Aaron wheeler that’s standing up and making sure instructions are pass on Glen towards the left headed towards the Box harmless for hannen hi it seems that Rhode Island Mark has had more chances but haven’t done much with no real chances of no have they oh goodness me Jay that’s a shank by Jay Chapman looks like my six IR so holstead will throw it in in the fourth official Brian canet moves him back brend and Mark making sure that they couldn’t take that throw in quickly by passing it to of the other back room team Fus was open momentarily they couldn’t get it to him a see a do who’s had a good work rate tonight to an open Chapman slows it down and on the left ramario Williams dribbles towards the Box triple team bumped and Vegas at the near post corals before any danger could ensue so since he came on you asked the question where’s he going to play I was pretty convinced he would play through the middle but they’re they’re just playing him a little bit withdrawn with Mei through the middle there are times that Romario will be the more advanced of the two as long as whoever isn’t the more advanced is doing the tracking back Harford will be okay it’s when they switch off that they’ll be in trouble we’ have not seen old friend Prince s for Rhode Island he was not even selected last week has only started two of the eight matches it’s played this is match number 12 for one of two expansion teams in the league North Carolina being the other alen patiently forming the attack and really that ball I me why would you why would you pass like that the DEA had no chance to get around Joe farell T is not a runner he’s not someone that’s going to beat you in the channel if you’ve got decent pace as a center back they haven’t played to his strengths certainly tonight there’s a reason he’s got this go drought you just haven’t provided him with the the service he’s a goal scorer you give him the ball you’ll usually do something with it he did have that one-on-one chance in the first half he was unable to convert on the whole they’ve marshaled him well special word for Jordan Scarlet tonight I think he’s been outstanding he said a couple of last ditch challenges that he’s had to make he’s timed them perfectly Scarlet wearing the captain’s armband played back by Scarlet to his SE to do now Haj giv go Hajj goes down foul called No Aus impeded H just going back two or three passes Beverly M andila can have thought of it going forward then elected to just either do a sideways pass or pass behind ended up at a SE do that’s why the free kick was was given I just want to want them to be braver on the ball not as safe because the quicker you can get forward in behind and get them turned that’s when you’re going to get the opportunities Harford haven’t had a good one in the second half it’s got to be better than that yeah it’s not a good Ball by I see you do the performance lab an all-inclusive model that brings the latest Technologies for pain relief wellness and Mobility all together Under One Roof with oneon-one treatments and a customized approach to fit your needs the performance lab will get you recovering moving and feeling your best in the Box sails over the goal line so another goal kick yeah for heading hi similar to what happened in the first half and it looked like Frank noi might have got a a touch but nari had left it there another example with with Joe Farrell this could come down to the deadlock being broken by an error or it could come down to an absolute wonder goal because right now there’s very little between these two and would it be a better point for Rhode Island on the road probably but they’ll feel they can still get all three as will Harford ball played Over The Far Side Rhode Island getting set to bring the native of Bolton Connecticut Joe burito into the match that would be their third and final sub trying to break through was Williams and good job by Ferell there to save a corner making him throwing From The Far Side as you look at first year head coach Kos Smith had been an assistant with Birmingham former captain of the Bermuda national team Joe burrito will be drawn in for the 11th time in 12 games taking their time on the throw in From The Far Side Turnbull Williams can’t get a header on it it’s grabbed by hio and frankly that’s kind of been the tenor of the second half possession favoring Rhode Island but the Barrow has not been called on to make any difficult saves I think Rhode Island deserve Credit in the second half a for being better than they were for the majority of the first half and B making sure harford’s key players are nullified DEA set sprawling almost looked like Joe Ferrell was calling a foul on himself here’s mlin with DEA down oh he was saying it wasn’t a foul right Doyle on the left the chip towards Williams hjj clears it out of danger I would think we’ll get in a referee’s whistle here for no it’s not a head knock there’s no obligation to to stop the play Angelina aimless ball deflected DEA still down in an offside position I don’t know how much he’s fancied this tonight and maybe that’s to do with the knock that he took when Rhode Island scored I’m not sure he’s been 100% ever since this well he’s going to come out anyways but we have a stoppage in play as they attend to last year’s Golden Boot winner you know Joe phoh Joe FOH really didn’t do anything that was a good tackle he’s basically saying to the referee there’s no danger that is a fell do not be conned and do not be fooled by that how in Express new inton conveniently located in the heart of the dining and shopping district of new inton on the Berlin Turnpike route 515 whether you need one night or an Extended Stay holiday and express will make your stay convenient and cost effective so Albert deell will go another game without a goal hasn’t scored since March 30th and the pride of Bolton former star at UNCC Charlotte Joe burrito will come in meanwhile looks like mamadu J will be the next sub for Harford s looking for his jersey yeah Sadia was uh about to enter the field of play the jersey of Emmanuel Samaria being worn by mammad dang who realized he’d got the wrong Jersey it kind of didn’t fit the way that it should in the 82nd minute in this first ever meeting between these two teams they will play in August at burn Stadium on the campus of Bryant University in Smithfield Rhode Island best known to many is the spring training home of the New England Patriots who was it 1995 there was talk about potentially them moving to Hartford don’t get me started still a sore Point well no I there was one person in Harford radio who was working at ESPN at the time and had a chance to talk to people like the late Chris Borton and the late John Clayton who said there’s not a snowballs chance in Haiti that Paul tagliaboo will allow the NFL look out Ma and Gila quick restart Williams tries to play it through and H just feels away so I’m on the radio in Hartford saying they’re not coming everybody said I was negative in this case negative equal right there’s no chance the Patriots ever used the city of Harford like a like a like a drum they beat him like a drum speaking of which the drums continue to play it’s not like you forgotten about it or a think so Madu Jang will come in for Marcus EPS at the next availability in a match that frankly has not captured the excitement that we had in the first 45 no here’s fusen tries to play ahead for burito but poorly sent in pass and EPS gets it back ases well a seeu in the middle gives it away very quietly kifa Yao has had a strong game in a center back position but he gives it away to EPS Marcus on the counter up the left channel plays it into the middle Ang Galena can’t trap it down down and fires it high we will get mamadu Jang into a game for the eighth time this year replacing marus EPS what a chance that is they’ve not had any in the second half but the body shape was all wrong from inulina he’s got a lot of talent but he needs to work on his finishing he’s not a finisher he’s not an instinctive finisher he scores goals yes but he’s not someone had to put your house on one player to score that chance or at least to hit the target he would be down the list if you can work on that with him you’ve already got the the makings of a good player a very good player all round but he’s not had much to do tonight he’s got to do better giveway stolen by Angelina but Williams with too much Pace race for the ball Jordan Scarlet will get there first shield and then get pushed and that is a very upset Mark Doyle with referee Luis Diego Ayo and we have our first yellow of the night second of the year for the Irishman Mark Doyle booked in the 86th minute Dole did not think he pushed him the reaction isn’t it Scarlet made it look like it was the push of the cental deadlocked at one that’s where we stood at halftime in the middle fuson off on the right to burito what a magical moment it would be for him to score in his home region that ball just played out of bounds by fuson Ferell touched it last but Noah Fus had much more room to run the Glendale California Native so here’s Klay holat looking to make a big throw into the box gets air under it the direction is off here’s Williams in front it’s cleared that turned into a far more dangerous situation than it should have if we can get a a replay on this one if there is no touch and that throw which I think hits the post if there’s no touch here which I don’t think there is had that gone straight in the goal would not have counted the fact that hits the post it’s still alive ball H just tripped by fuson shots 1110 in favor of Rhode Island shots on Target 42 in favor of the team in Amber don’t think there’s a touch certainly not from Hanan hio bar way out to trigger the play in the direction of Jang headed Away by no Dar and played up field this is when um when you know someone’s boring on a night out as there’s a change made by Rhode Island with Mark Doyle being replaced by Prince SD the former Hartford player L 15 of the game a goal cannot be scored directly from a throwin if the ball enters the goal from a throw and it has to be the opposition goal from an attacking throw a goal kick is awarded so Prince sad who scored 14 goals in 64 games in the blue and green the last two years LED Harford in goals last year with 11 onto the pitch replacing the goal scorer for Rhode Island Mark Doyle giving you another piece of information you didn’t know and you didn’t need to know either that would be an attacking throw a defensive throw if it goes all the way in for an own goal wouldn’t count it would be a corner kick that’s awarded as you work that’s important information that never happens though but the laws of the game are there because just in case cuz strange things happen in sport both team PL here’s a quick counter C gets it to fuson hjj intercepts the poor pass in the direction of Breo chested down by Romario Williams He drags it over the touchdown oh that’s a foul throw now burito changes directions towards no Dar and he gives it away some sloppy play over the last five minutes here here as we await the announcement of stoppage time in a game that if I were a betting man I would say would end a 1-1 tie Bri no Vineyard stoppage time four minutes of stoppage time holstead back to defend to Shane or rather to defend R angalina and it’ll be a goal kick I would say Mark that because they’ve tied seven matches already this year would be fine with the one point yeah but you know it’s weird Harford hasn’t drawn yet this season right four and six if you were a betting man you say you’d think it’ll finish 1-1 I think that was the the favorite score among many before the game many might have had it right Williams with a flick so does fuson Hajj heads it back towards hio into stoppage time four minutes as we mentioned kind of a Sidewinder kick up on the right side Chapman plays for Buckmaster ahead to Jang and the pass too far for Buckmaster sellout crowd of 5500 here on high shop Avenue for the first meeting ever between these New England Rivals I’ve only lived in this country for 4 14 years and that’s the first time I’ve heard that the name of that street actually pronounced had no idea how to pronounce it see thank you my bit of useless information the rematch August 10th at burn Stadium on the Bryant campus in Smithfield once again that’s a temporary home there are plans to build a soccer Palace oh in Palace what me that paper it looks nice looks amazing Tidewater Landings fantastic 10 and a half thousand the fact we’re even talking about this suggests this has been a second half to forget I want to defend the players they put so much into that first half especially Hartford it’s no wonder they’re tired just got to be careful that they don’t lose concentration either set of players between now and the end of this game angalina gets aead on it Vegas who’s had very little to do in this half plays it up field Buckmaster header SD there to take it away Prince with space plac it back on the left so we’ve seen both SD and mlin the two former athletic players for Rhode Island Turnbull off the fusion chips towards the Box no danger here Barrow easily plucks it out of the air it’s nice to have a goalkeeper where you’re comfortable you can well that’s okay the Brazilian will get that he’s just he’s just a solid solid go Williams keeping an eye on hio up in the middle of the field second Header by Hartford yeah that header was by Chapman Joe and we’ve hardly mentioned his name in the second half have we barely Scarlet tries to play a through ball and Yao knocks it away Hodge in Midfield foren Galena he slowed up and loses possession long ball in the direction of fusen headed down by Ferell foul on Rhode Island as we are approaching the last minute of stoppage time and they’re going to bring hio he starts out to take it no no that’s far too yeah far too close to the top say in a one all tie yeah in the final minut stoppage time that’s not what you would want to do if you’re down to one you need a goal and get everybody forward yeah but not now play towards the Box ended up in the air away from trouble and clear basically all Rhode Island’s trying to do is clear the ball long downfield and hope for lucky break there’s really been no Rhyme or Reason to their offensive attack for the last 25 minutes they don’t look that deep their starting 11 is is all right I think they should be higher up in the league than they are but when you start making changes I don’t think the depth is and it’s understandable it’s hard you got to put together a roster from scratch Hartford have found that over the years it’s not easy Scarlet followes it up in the air headed back and Vegas will play it and we are at fulltime and the question is if a tie is like kissing your sister who’s got the prettier sister tonight in the first ever meeting between these Regional Rivals we end up in a 1-1 tie the coaches shake hands we’ll come back and wrap things up next Rhode Island one Hartford one and embrace the laid-back charm of Island life while sinking your toes in the sand and discovering real authentic Florida in

if anything it’s one of the best first halfes I’ve seen this season and one of the most forgettable second halfes whether it was tness or whatever I don’t think I’ve seen a game like that where two teams have canceled each other out as much for a long time and the second half it’s no surprise it’s another draw they eighth for Rhode Island it’s hartford’s first draw did either side do enough over the piece to win the game I don’t think so if it had ended at the first half I think Harford would say that they deserve to be ahead but it was a brilliant first game in this rival ring Mark Doyle in the fourth minute for Rhode Island Joe frell in the 24th Harford on the road next week they will go to New Mexico back here on June the 15th against Pittsburgh once again our final score from Trinity
