CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. - Chattanooga FC defeated 865 Alliance 1-0 on Friday night in front of a CFC Women club record attendance of 1,982.

CFC had to remain patient but the breakthrough finally came in the 85th minute when Kallie West scored off a second chance created from a free-kick.

EG Dillard nearly opened the scoring for Chattanooga in the 20th minute with a shot that deflected high off the crossbar.

CFC had another chance in the 30th minute when Kasie Vigil's corner kick swung in to find Claire Palya for a header that was saved.

865 had a strong chance in the 38th but CFC goalkeeper Ashton Blair stayed solid between the posts with a crucial kick-save.

Neither side was able to put one in the back of the net, sending the match into halftime level at 0-0.

The second half remained tight, but West buried a shot through chaos in front of the net to finally break the deadlock for the Scenic City.

Chattanooga held on to its lead through the end of regulation to complete the season sweep over the visitors from Knoxville.

"It was a huge win," said Head Coach Majo Harispuru. "The team deserves it. We play to win, to score goals and to have a good time. We've been doing the right things to get there, so emotionally we definitely needed that reassurance. This is more than three points; it feels like 12." Full post-match press conference here.
