Milford Flips The Script With Comeback Win Over King Philip

MILFORD, Mass. — Four weeks ago, King Philip scored twice in the final 12 minutes to stun Milford and grab a 3-2 win.

It might not have been as dramatic on Thursday night, but the Scarlet Hawks flipped the script on the Warriors.

This time it was Milford who rallied from a one-goal deficit in the second half, scoring twice inside the final 25 minutes to gain the lead while senior goalie Iuri Dias made a game-saving stop with just over five minutes to go to secure a 3-2 win.

“I think the boys are really ecstatic to get that loss back,” said Milford head coach Antonio Pinto. The Hawks’ three losses this year are to St. John’s Prep (#1 in Division 1), Oliver Ames (#1 in Division 2) and KP — the Hawks had a second half red card in the first meeting and finished with 10 men. “I think they wanted to see how this game played out if we kept 11 men. I don’t think there was a clear cut better team today, it was a good match.”

Milford struck just 29 seconds into the game when junior Mayck Moreira smashed in a header off a cross from sophomore Marcos Da Silva while King Philip leveled the match just before halftime as good pressure from senior Ryan Love forced a loose ball that junior Greyson Perachi jumped onto and fired a left-footed shot from the corner of the area that found the back of the net.

That set the stage for an exciting second half filled with chances from both sides, key stops from both Dias and his counterpart Brent Schneider, and near misses — right down to the final seconds.

Just 10 minutes into the second half, Schneider made an excellent diving stop right at the post, just getting down to push a shot from Milford junior Bryan Ribeiro wide. Three minutes later, the Warriors had their first lead. Perachi jumped on a loose ball in the attacking third, danced his way into a bit of space and fired a low shot from about 25 yards out. The shot was stopped but spilled and the only player to follow the shot was KP senior Nick Longobardi and he had an easy finish to give KP a 2-1 lead.

“That was a good match,” said King Philip head coach Mike O’Neill. “We have great respect for Coach Pinto and his team. They are technical and athletic — they will be a tough out in the tournament.”

The advantage lasted less than five minutes though. Marcos Da Silva gained possession in the midfield and slowed the play. Given some time and space, he rifled a switch over the top of the defense to the right side where senior Danny Da Silva ran onto it, took a touch at goal into the area and blasted a finish past the keeper to make it 2-2.

“The kids are resilient really, they don’t really get affected,” Pinto said. “I don’t know if it’s a good thing or a bad thing, because it feels like we’re crawling back into the game a lot, but they just they stay composed. They get a little emotional sometimes, and we’re trying to control that.”

KP’s defense did well as Milford pushed for the go-ahead goal. Ben Cochran tracked back well to deny a potential breakaway bid, and on the ensuing corner, Jakoby Penabad came up with a key stop to prevent a clean shot from inside the area. Schneider did his part too, denying Marcos Da Silva’s one-timer with a stop in the top corner at the near post, and then again with a leaping one-handed stop on a great half volley bid from Cael Martins — from about 30 yards out — minutes later.

But Milford’s pressure paid off as the Hawks seized the lead on a corner kick. Marcos Da Silva’s service was met by junior center back Gui Quaresma, and his towering header at the far post bounced back through the six-yard box and into the side netting to put Milford ahead 3-2.

It was a hat trick of assists for Marcos Da Silva — on his birthday.

“The last time we talked, the tie against Franklin, that was a game I was telling Marcos I wanted him taking the ball more, driving with the ball more because he’s fast, he’s athletic, and he’s tough to defend one-on-one. I don’t think there’s many defenders that contain him.”

The drama was far from over as King Philip came inches from tying the game three times in the final 10 minutes. Senior Marco Amorim dropped a perfect cross that Perachi got on the end of with a header but Dias timed his leap perfectly, getting just enough of his hand to it as it hit the top of the crossbar and went over the box.

“He’s such a competitor, and he takes it all to heart,” Pinto said of Dias. “You could tell after the goals he gave up that he wanted a chance to make up for it, and he really did. That was a phenomenal save and that saved the game for us.”

A minute later, junior Max Van Hoesen unleashed a shot from 35 yards out that sizzled just over the crossbar. And then in the final seconds, an errant punt fell to Amorim and he unleashed a shot from 40 yards out with the net open, but it bounced just wide before the final whistle.

Amorim Sparks King Philip To Win Over Sharon

WRENTHAM, Mass. — After being limited to just eight games a year ago, King Philip senior Marco Amorim is wasting no time making up for it with a breakout start to his final season.

Amorim had a goal and an assist on Tuesday afternoon to lead the Warriors to a 2-0 win over division foe Sharon. The result pushed KP’s unbeaten streak to four in a row since dropping the opener.

“He’s the complete package,” said King Philip head coach Mike O’Neill. “He’s accountable on defense, he’s lightning quick on the ball, and he’s super intelligent with his movement. He’s playing some elite soccer right now and I’m not sure where everyone else is at around the league but I wouldn’t be surprised if he was leading the league in points.”

His goal put the Warriors ahead in the eighth minute of the game and then he set up classmate Nick Longobardi in the 46th minute to double the advantage for the hosts.

The Warriors have scored in all five games so far this season, and found the back of the net seven times in its previous two games against OA and Westwood. But KP also conceded seven, tying both games. O’Neill was happy for his side to secure their second shutout of the season.

“Yeah, I’m very pleased with the effort from the boys,” O’Neill said. “More importantly, we were having some organizational and tactical problems in defense, and you know when you get going in season, with 18 games and there’s two or three a week, it’s very hard to find time to teach. But the boys picked it up very fast today, and I was pleased.

“Instead of just sitting in at the end, we left them out there in our original shape to give the midfielders time to really get reps being in the right place. They did better. They did better, but we still have plenty of work to do.”

KP’s bright start came from Amorim’s strong play in the midfield. The senior won a handful of early challenges and helped spray the ball around, picking out teammates in both flanks while looking for through balls past the defense. The opening — and game-winning — ended up coming off his right foot less than 10 minutes in.

Junior Greyson Perachi played a ball out wide for senior George Blakesley. His service into the area was knocked away by Sharon keeper Sam Buder but the ensuing clearance didn’t make it out of the area, looping up only as far as Amorim, who took it one-time and it deflected off the near post and in to make it 1-0.

KP had a chance just a minute later when Longobardi got off a shot from just inside the area but Sharon defender Arjun Singhania did well to block it down.

The Eagles started to gain footing in the game as the half went on. Jusenly Lorth flashed a header wide off a free kick from Zack Abdelkader in the 13th minute and then KP goalie Brent Schneider made a pair of saves on Sharon sophomore Greg Pavlov in the 14th and 17th minutes, including a strong stop on a chance from inside the box.

Sharon added two more chances before the halftime whistle but didn’t truly test Schneider. Senior Leo Yin ripped a one timer that went over the bar in the 38th minute, and seconds later, Damian Gorea teed up Pavlov for a chance in the area but his bid was wide at the near post.

The halftime whistle came at the right time for KP, who regrouped at the break and doubled its lead less than 10 minutes into the second half. A looping ball from Amorim to Longobardi set up the corner, and the two connected again on the set piece to double the lead. Amorim’s service dropped right to the penalty spot and Longobardi rose above the crowd and deposited a perfect header into the upper corner, leaving no chance for an outstretched Buder.

“We definitely talked about the importance of continuing to compete, especially when you’re ahead,” O’Neill said. “We had an object lesson on Saturday about how quickly you can lose a lead–and even lose it multiple times–but they didn’t today. That’s one of the exciting things about this team: you can remind them of what happened in previous games, and they respond. It isn’t about the effort, they work hard, and it’s really just about finding that mental focus again. They did that today. I was very happy for them. They got the second goal, and then we pretty much just took the air out of the ball for the rest of the game.”

Sharon made an effort to get forward over the final 20 minutes but Schneider was only called into action once, punching away a free kick from senior Diego Martinez from 25 yards out.

King Philip’s defense was anchored by seniors Ryan Love and Ben Cochran in front of Schneider. Blakesley manned the right wing while Jacoby Penabad and Hunter Wells played on the left. Senior Greg Manley and Nick Wendling provided an extra layer of defense up the middle from their spots in the midfield.

“We have some very good players, but we also have a lot of inexperience, so they’re getting up to speed quickly,” O’Neill said. “Brent and Ryan have been terrific. Brent, of course, is one of our captains. He’s a very steady hand back there. He never gets rattled, he’s completely calm, and he’s a really good athlete, so he gives the other players a lot of confidence. I also thought this was one of Ryan’s best games. He had an amazing game against Franklin, and I think this was second only to that. He played really well in the back, and even under a ton of pressure he looked really relaxed.”

King Philip boys soccer (2-1-1 Hockomock, 2-1-2 overall) will look to extend its unbeaten streak on Thursday when it visits Foxboro. Sharon (1-2-1, 1-2-1) is on the road again with a trip to Mansfield on the same day.
