An excellent performance in the goal from Tomas Gomez kept Republic FC’s unbeaten streak alive. The veteran goalkeeper notched his third clean sheet of the season, two of which have come against Oakland Roots SC.
Oakland would come close to pulling ahead twice in the first half. An attempt from Jesus Enriquez would sail high in the 12th minute, and Yohannes Harish’s 17th minute shot from close range would be deflected out by Gomez.
Gomez again would keep Oakland from breaking the tie in the 64th minute, when a Jeremy Bokila strike from point blank range went off his chest before Gomez would snap it off the line.
