San Antonio FC 1:2 Las Vegas Lights — Informe del Partido

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystINFORME DEL PARTIDO

Joseph Batrouni made seven saves for San Antonio FC but could not prevent his side from losing 2-1 at home to Las Vegas Lights in the USL Championship, a result that leaves the hosts without a scheduled next fixture to look ahead to. San Antonio had taken an early lead through Emil Cuello's sixth-minute strike, assisted by Jorge Hernandez, but the visitors turned the match around in the second half.

Las Vegas equalised two minutes after the restart when Johnny Rodriguez finished from Oalex Anderson's pass, and the decisive moment arrived in the 79th minute as Abraham Okyere fired home unassisted to put the Lights ahead. San Antonio's night unravelled further in stoppage time when Santiago Patiño was shown a straight red card, leaving the home side to finish with ten men.

The statistics paint a telling picture: Las Vegas edged the shot count 12 to 11 and won the corner battle 5 to 4, yet San Antonio controlled 53 percent of possession overall — though the second half told a different story, as the visitors managed seven shots to San Antonio's three while surrendering 59 percent of the ball. Joseph Batrouni was the standout player with a 7.6 rating as a goalkeeper, making a string of saves to keep his team in the contest despite the defeat. CheckLive's model clearly favoured San Antonio, but the result did not confirm that prediction, with the Lights proving more clinical on the night.
