EL PASO, Texas - El Paso Locomotive FC earned their third consecutive defensive shutout to gather a point against Miami FC on Saturday evening at FIU Pitbull Stadium.

Locomotive controlled most of the first half and created some threatening chances but could not find the back of the net. Andy Cabrera left the match with an apparent injury in the 13th minute and was replaced by Christian Sorto.

The second half saw traffic go both ways with both teams pushing for a match winner. Jahmali Waite came up huge for Los Locos with a pair of clutch saves to keep the hosts off the scoresheet.
