Royal Recap
The 2016 NPSL Champions started on the attacking foot creating chances left and right. It wasn’t until the 25th minute until they got the wheels turning when Chris Cvecko struck 11 minutes from Half. Seconds later the Royals doubled their lead when AFC Cleveland Soccer N’ Smoothies Star Vinny Bell chipped the keeper from just outside the 18 yard box capping off a one sided first half.

Tristan Lyle responded instantly for the Dynamo setting the tone for what we would be a half mostly slanted in the AFC Cleveland defensive third. Tate Robertson then notched another goal leveling the score at 2. As rain began to fall the the tides turned and Cvecko scored again giving Cleveland the attached. The Dynamo weren’t to be denied a share of the points. Tate Robertson completed his brace as the clock wound down under the pouring rain. The final whistle and gone, 3-3 was the final score.
