Union S.C. Advances to Final in Overtime

PLAYOFFS: SEMI-FINAL

BOXSCORE

Union Southern California   2
Burud Town S.C.                 1 (OT)

Thanks to the Philadelphia Union, It was the BSL's Union of Southern California that will be advancing to the BSL Cup Final. The 2010 Playoff Semi-Final Game got off to a very quiet start. The match started on a Wednesday with no scorers for either club. Thursday brough another 0-0 result. Even a rare Friday match saw no offense for either side. Finally on Saturday Burud Town broke through with a goal from last years BSL playoffs hero - Omar Cummings. The lead was short lived as Union S.C. equalized with a Sebastian LeToux goal that was assisted by Justin Mapp who would not count in the scoresheet yet because he was benched by the Blues. The game progressed and the score remained deadlocked 1-1. In the nightcap Donovan Ricketts was holding the game winner until in the 84th minute he lost his clean sheet for the Blues. The result was the first ever overtime in the BSL. Burud Town would have no bench or reserve players with any scores, while Union S.C. had Mapp's assist available as well as Jon Busch's clean sheet in reserves. Mapp's assist would prove to be the game winner in overtime.
