FC Indiana of the Women’s Premier Soccer League (WPSL) defeated visiting Trinidad & Tobago WNT 3-0. Paty Perez scored two goals and Christy Shaner added one, with Holly Gault getting two assists and Fatima Leyva one for FC Indiana, who improved to a 11-1 record on the season.
Perez scored just 6:24 into the game as FC Indiana cruised to a comfortable win in an international exhibition action at Goshen Soccer Park Tuesday night.
Gault started the scoring play on the opening goal when she carried the ball on the right side and slipped a pass through to Perez. The FC Indiana forward ran onto the ball and tucked a first-time left-footed shot into the lower right corner from just inside the box for her 15th FC Indiana goal.
Perez added to the lead in the 71st minute off a feed from Gault. Gault started the play when she played a perfect 35 yard pass to Perez, who controlled the ball before sliding a 10-yard shot past Trinidad & Tobago goalkeeper Ramkisson.
Christy Shaner boosted the FC Indiana lead to 3-0 in the 76th minute off a great corner kick from Leyva. Shaner out-jumped her defender before cracking a 7-yard header into the upper right corner of the goal.
FC Indiana fans will get their second look at Trinidad & Tobago this Thursday night as FC Indiana and Trinidad & Tobago play again at 7:30 p.m. at Goshen Soccer Park.
