For the first time this season, El Rancho was forced to settle for a draw. Neither they nor the Santa Fe Chiefs could gain the upper hand on Thursday so the two teams had to settle for a 2-2 draw. The outcome might've been different if Ruben Viramontes hadn't been hit with a yellow card, which no doubt limited his ability to make aggressive plays down the stretch.
Esteban Picon and Daniel Salgado scored both of El Rancho's goals, bringing their combined season tally to four goals.
With that draw, El Rancho's record moves to 8-7-1. Meanwhile, Santa Fe's record is now 8-1-5.
Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. El Rancho will face off against California at 6:00 p.m. on Saturday. California's last four games have been decided by no more than a goal, so don't be surprised if it's a close one. Santa Fe has already played their next matchup (against La Serna), but no score has been uploaded at the time of writing.
