Match Summary
The Booker T. Washington Tornadoes have kicked off their 2024-2025 season in spectacular fashion, with a dominant 3-0 victory over Hialeah Miami Lakes High School!
The Tornadoes made their mark early, and it was Yohan Cardona, who led the charge. In the 20th minute of the first half, Fernando Puente, #9 for the Tornadoes, was fouled inside the penalty box. And up stepped Cardona, cool as ever, to bury the penalty and put Booker T. Washington up 1-0.
But the action didn’t stop there! Fast forward to the second half, and once again, it’s Cardona with the magic. He delivers a pinpoint assist to Puente, who rises above the defense and nods it home for a close-range header to make it 2-0!
And as if the Tornadoes weren’t done yet, the finishing touch came when Juan Munoz, #7, was taken down in the box, earning his team another penalty kick. Munoz calmly stepped up and slotted it past the keeper, sealing the victory and putting Booker T. Washington up 3-0.
