The Pateadores Academy BU16 showed its class with a lopsided 5-0 shutout victory over Nomads in U.S. Development Academy action.
The score line reflects the strengths of the team. The team has deep and talented group of strikers, stylish playmakers in the midfield, a stubborn defense and stingy goalkeeping.
Most importantly, piece by piece, the Academy BU16 is putting it all together at this early stage of the season, having earned results in 6 of 7 games. This momentum bodes well for the important upcoming fixtures against the Houston Dynamo on December 2 and IMG Academy (Florida) on December 3.
To date, Head Coach Matt Tutton and Assistant Coach Francisco “Pancho” Diaz are pleased with the players’ work rate and their dedication to a possession-oriented, attacking style of play.
