Game Summary
Monarch did a great job applying high pressure all over the field. They also got numbers forward and enjoyed the lion's share of possession and chances. Legacy did not have a great performance today and Monarch took advantage. Collison had a good night making some key saves and big distribution efforts, but ultimately gave up two goals that weren't his fault. A set piece was deflected by the wall and luckily went in the opposite corner - would have been covered by Collison if not deflected. Insurance goal was a function of a defensive error that led to an impromptu 1v1 with Collison from short range.
