CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. - In the second and final meeting of the 2020 USL League One regular season between South Georgia Tormenta FC and Chattanooga Red Wolves SC, Tormenta FC came out on top with a needed 2-1 win on the road.

Tormenta FC came close numerous times throughout the first 45 minutes, with Marco Micaletto continuing his strong campaign, but Chattanooga's Greg Hurst scored first.

Chattanooga held strong to their lead until Pato Botello-Faz earned a penalty in the 79th minute. Micaletto stepped up and converted on the spot, tying up the match 1-1. Just three minutes later, Luca Mayr found space outside the box and scored a stunning game-winner to give Tormenta FC its second win of the season.

Tormenta FC will continue its road journey next weekend, when the team travels to play Orlando City B for the second and final time this regular season on Saturday, Aug. 28.
