The Battery featuring none other than ex-TFC player Amadou Sanyang.
Wilmington won 1-0 with 10 men. Some great defending at the end.
Aparicio was sent off with a second yellow but apparently the ref incorrectly gave it to him, another player had actually committed the foul.
Great to see Q with his third shutout of the season, through five games. Good on him.
Remember The Man, The Legend, The Goal 5-12-07 and All That #9 Left On The Pitch, Thanks For The Memories !!!
Ended up destroying a piece of the dugout on the way to the locker room.Originally Posted by notthesun
That's what I thought too, but it was hard to see with the panned back stream/camera work.
I suppose that's why the boys are down there, get used to fans screaming at you and stupid refs.
Roberts named to the USL team of the week.
USL Pro has rescinded Aparicio's 2nd yellow. No harm done in the end... besides the dugout Aparicio punched.

US Open Cups 2nd round on now. Only Hamilton starting from the TFC players.
Would be nice to see them go deep in this tourny and beat the Krew in the final
Lost 3-1 :@(
Should be fun !!
Hammerheads announce date for friendly match against #TorontoFC. June 18, during the #MLS World Cup break. bit.ly/1jiXmkK #ilm
Should be a good chance for the team to bond as I'm sure they will stay and "train" in myrtle beach for a few days surrounding the friendly.

Hamilton subbed on and had a good goal
also lol

Quillan Roberts given red card after running across field during the scrum. That's big because backup GK Matt Glaeser is injured.
lots of fights in game lol
The Hammerheads must be smarting from that cup loss during the week- first team from that level to beat a USL Pro, from what I heard. Games against an MLS team can make a big difference to the bottom line.
showed some really nice strength and composure on that goal.
Everyone keep in mind, the road trip to support Wilmington on Saturday July 19 when they take on the Rhinos in Rochester.
Lets get some good numbers heading down.

I've watched a few minutes of this and quite enjoying it. They play some decent football for a lower side.
Refs (as usual for north america) somewhat dubious. No confidence to deal with players so they remonstrate like it's a mens league game, linesman woefully hopeless when it comes to getting the onside calls right.
very nice run by Hamilton to set up Ochoa for Hammerheads 3rd goal

Hamilton assists on the third goal. Hammerheads rolling all over Pittsburgh
Great dummy and run from Hamilton. 2 goals and 2 assists in his first two games now.

That looked like a comedy skit or David Lynch film there.
