Penn FC’s sloppy loss against Pittsburgh has their season on the ropes

Penn FC still had a chance to do something memorable with their season if they had managed to defeat the Pittsburgh Riverhounds Wednesday night. Because they had managed to draw Pittsburgh twice earlier in the season, a win would have given Penn FC the Keystone Derby Cup over their playoff bound rivals. Taking a trophy away from a team that’s poised to make a big playoff run would have been quite the feather in their cap for 2018. But it was not meant to be as Pittsburgh took care of business to take the 2-0 win and the cup.
