Monterey Bay FC got on the scoreboard first in the 30th minute against Oakland Roots when Walmer Martinez found Tristan Trager, who lost his marker for a free header to give the home side a 1-0 lead.

Outside of the goal, both teams failed to truly threaten the opposition's net, as the score remained 1-0 in favor of Monterey going into halftime.

Monterey got the second half started quickly as Chuy Enriquez hit a perfect cross-field pass to Alex Lara, doubling the lead to 2-0 in their favor.

Johnny Rodriguez got Oakland back into the match with a fancy finish, calmly slotting the ball home over his shoulder to cut the lead in half in the 65th minute, making the game 2-1.

As Oakland was battling back, Irakoze Donasiyano got booked for a second yellow card challenge, resulting in a red card and giving Monterey a man advantage for the final five minutes of the game.

Monterey would go on to hold the 2-1 lead despite earning a late red card of their own, handing Oakland their first loss in the last four games.

Oakland now heads to Southern California to face Orange County SC next Saturday, June 29th. Roots will return to the East Bay on July 6th to face Louisville City FC.
