Earlier this week, the Union Academy U16’s and U18’s completed their run in the US Soccer Development Academy Playoffs. The teams needed to win their respective groups, which were full of tough opposition in MLS Academies and DA clubs alike, in order to advance to the next round. Unfortunately, despite many great team plays and moments of brilliance on the field, neither were able to win their group to progress to the quarterfinals. One of these notable moments is being hailed as the goal of the tournament, a bicycle kick from midfielder Manny Perez in the U18 match against Lonestar SC Academy.
