El Paso Locomotive FC News Release


SHERMAN, Texas - El Paso Locomotive FC managed two points in their USL Jägermeister Cup debut against Texoma FC, winning in penalties 0(6)-0(5) in Sherman, Texas at Historic Bearcat Stadium.

El Paso controlled over 67 percent of possession in the opening half, but it was the hosts who led with five shots to three for Locomotive. A glove save from Sebastian Mora Mora late in the half kept things scoreless at the break.

It was more of the same in the second half as the visitors held nearly 70 percent of possession with the hosts creating more chances. Locomotive had 44 final third entries in the final 45 minutes but could not find the back of the net in regulation.

Robert Coronado saw his attempt from the spot saved to begin the penalty shootout, but after that, Los Locos would convert six straight and take advantage of two Texoma penalties sailing wide to get the shootout victory.

GAME NOTES

Omar Mora made his first professional start and his first for Locomotive.

FORECAST: 79ºF, partly cloudy
