ATLANTA, GEORGIA—The dream of United Premier Soccer League (UPSL) Georgia Division Summer Regional Cup champion Atlanta Rovers FC to win back-to-back titles is very much alive. On November 19 at around 2 p.m. at Silverbacks Park, Rovers FC beat Georgia FC 1-0 in their first-round playoff match-up.
In their game, Alejandro Rodriguez provided the lone and winning goal for Rovers FC. With the win, Rovers FC is set to face LGSA in the semifinals on December 3 at Silverback’s Park Stadium. Atlanta Rovers FC beat the visiting Kalonji Pro-Profile 3-1 to win the coveted 2022 UPSL Georgia Summer Regional Cup at the South Gwinnett Park Stadium.
The three winning goals of Atlanta Rovers FC were provided by Chris Duron, Alejandro Rodriguez, and Luke Sexton. Atlanta Rovers FC Coach AB Aloui is very happy with the first UPSL crown of the team. In the previous meetings between the two soccer clubs, Kalonji always had the advantage.
Still, this time, Rovers FC has something up its sleeves that gives them a winning edge against their favored opponent, who was represented by their U-23 team. Rovers FC got the championship slot after beating SEAS Jamaica All-Stars 2-1 in their semifinal duel at the South Gwinnett Park Stadium at 8 in the evening last July 30.
