The Acalanes Dons secured another victory on Tuesday, defeating the Las Lomas Knights 2-0. The Dons’ defense, anchored by Eitan Romick, proved impenetrable, limiting Las Lomas’ scoring chances. Midfielder Omri Noiman effectively disrupted the Knights’ counter-attacks, keeping Acalanes in control of most of the pitch. Despite creating early scoring opportunities, the Dons were unable to capitalize, and the first half ended scoreless. However, with eight minutes remaining, Jeremy Lara capitalized on a pass from Ben Pecci, scoring with a deceptive shot that eluded the Las Lomas keeper.

Acalanes sealed the victory late. Ben Pecci dispossessed the opposing fullback, driving downfield and delivering a precise cross to Colby Ebner, who finished the play for the 2-0 final score. Man of the Match goes to Jeremy Lara. The Dons improved their record to 8-0-1 and now face a crucial home match against league rival Clayton Valley this Thursday at 7 PM at HOME.
