Maybe it’s a homecoming story, or on the other hand, a revenge matchup. But maybe, it isn’t. Maybe it’s just a friendly. Even further, maybe it’s a pivotal friendly, one that could kickstart momentum in the last few games of season play before playoffs. Maybe it’s a mid-September 7:40 p.m matchup in Harrison, New Jersey. Two teams squaring off under the sunset, with overhead planes roaring to and fro, and a loud crowd celebrating Noche Latina… let the game begin.
