SAN ANTONIO, TX - San Antonio FC (2-3-2) will play Oklahoma City Energy FC (1-1-3) at Taft Stadium on Sunday, May 15 at 6:00 p.m. The match will be the first time the two clubs meet as San Antonio looks to bounce back from a loss at home last weekend.

SAFC heads into the match looking for three points after falling 3-2 to Rio Grande Valley FC in stoppage time last weekend. A goal from Manolo Sanchez and one from Shawn Chin were not enough to salvage a point for the club after coming back from a 2-0 deficit.

Forwards Shawn Chin and Jason Johnson are currently leading the San Antonio attack along with midfielder Carlos Alvarez. Together, the players have notched six goals and two assists, accounting for over half of all SAFC goals so far this season.

San Antonio FC currently sits in ninth place in the league table with two wins, three losses and two ties despite allowing just eight goals out of over 70 total shots attempted by opposition.

OKC has tallied four goals and conceded five in their five total matches this season. Midfielder Sebastian Dalgaard will look anchor the team's attack on Sunday. The Denmark native has recorded one goal and one assist this season.
