Chicago House AC 2-1 Stumptown AC
BRIDGEVIEW, IL—Chicago House AC won their third match in four and climbed to fourth in the table for the Fall Season with a 2-1 win over Stumptown AC. The House has also gone 6-3-0 after opening the season 1-5-2.
Michael Novotny came up big with three saves on the evening including a pair in the 48th minute first on Robert Hines and then on Ismael Longo. Four minutes later, the House got the breakthrough as Louis Bennett’s cross was headed in by Rodolfo Sulia.
Stumptown continued to press and were rewarded in the 80th minute when Jared Odenbeck’s cross into the box was met by Colin Stripling for the equalizer.
Six minutes later though, House would go up for good after Wojciech Wojcik received a pass from Anthony Bowie and beat Kevin Gonzales far post.
House conclude their season next Saturday at SeatGeek Stadium against Cal United Strikers FC. Kickoff is at 7:30pm.
