A nicely executed corner in coming from Robbie Mertz, then Sean Suber redirects to far post for his backline mate.

Hounds make one change -- and no surprise -- Augi Williams -- who was bat out of hell in the first half on both sides of ball (three shots, four touches in opp box, four fouls committed inc Yellow Card) comes out.

Hounds have been playing quite (over)aggressively but despite generating more shots, more time on ball, they've committed too many careless fouls (15-1!!) & had defensive lapse

@pghsoccernow.bsky.social

Another Yellow Card to the Hounds -- this time it's Augi Williams who nicks Sylla in the attacking zone.

Hounds defend the free kick well but fouls and cards are starting to mount.

As they kickoff...

only change this week for Hounds -- Robbie Mertz is back in the starting group -- earning his 158th career start

He now surpasses club Hall of Famer & fellow Upper St Clair native, Gary DePalma for the most appearances for a Pittsburgh-born player
