The goal – Lopez’s first of the season – came on the cusp of stoppage time as a loose ball fell to RoRo towards the top of the box and the veteran midfielder rifled a right-footed effort past the visiting goalkeeper and tie the game with just minutes left to play. RoRo’s goal also just so happens to be on the seven-year anniversary of the Miracle at Bonney – the night Lopez netted a hat trick to send SRFC to the USL Championship finals.
