Sacramento Republic FC gets first win of 2024 season against Miami FC
Sacramento Republic FC dominated Saturday’s match from kickoff and never looked back. Sacramento got on the board with an early goal from scoring leader Trevor Amann, who has now scored four goals in five appearances for his new team.
Amann’s goal came in the match’s 5th minute off an assist from Russell Cicerone, who sent a ground cross into the middle of Colorado’s goalie box before Amann faked out a defender and launched the ball into the back of the net off his left foot.
Cicerone, last year’s Sacramento Republic FC scoring leader, added the match’s second and final goal in the 26th minute.
Amann almost extended the team’s lead after getting behind the Colorado defense and getting a one-on-one opportunity with their goalie at the beginning of the second half, however, his shot was just wide of the net.
