Union Academy teams continue success in Texas; Soto's free kick golazo steals headlines

Philadelphia Union Academy teams have continued their winning ways in Frisco, Texas, at the U.S. Soccer Development Academy Playoffs. The U16 and U18 squads are each one win away from the knockout round with their final group stage games coming today. The U14 team played in the USSDA Showcase, suffering only their second defeat of the calendar year at the hands of Sockers FC before topping Chicago Fire Academy and Portland Timbers Academy.

The U14s had no trouble finding the back of the net over the final three games of their season, scoring eight goals at the Showcase including this Cole Turner “golazo” on a free kick.
