Sacramento head into their second game of the season after drawing 1-1 to Real Monarchs SLC at home last weekend. The Utah side went ahead in the 35th minute thanks to a well-taken penalty kick from Jack Blake, a lead they would hold for most of the game. Sacramento fought back, and with less than ten minutes remaining, Republic FC newcomers Sam Werner and Charalampos “Haris” Chantozopoulos combined to score the equalizing goal and rescue a point for the Indomitable Club.
How about the other guys?
