June 19, 2016: Kalamazoo FC

June 19, 2016
NPSL Regular Season
Keyworth Stadium, Hamtramck, MI

Detroit City FC 1, Kalamazoo FC 0
DCFC Tommy Catalano (George Chomakov) 63′

Attendance: 3,783

Despite the early season highs, Le Rouge’s regular season was struggling.  Going into the midway point, the standings looked like this:

(Wins-Losses-Draws-Points)
AFC Ann Arbor     4-1-2   14
Grand Rapids FC  3-1-3   11
Kalamazoo FC      3-3-1    10
Michigan Stars     2-2-3     9
Lansing United    1-2-4      7
Detroit City FC    1-2-3      6
Dayton Dynamo  1-4-1      4

It was a scorching, Father’s Day Sunday.  Le Rouge had not yet won a regular season match at Keyworth.  And the crowd that appeared was smaller than the last two regular season matches at Cass Tech.

It must have been the rope-a-dope.

Tommy Catalano’s 63rd minute goal and Nate Steinwescher’s shut-out created City’s first regular season home victory at Keyworth.

Now the flags and banners can be righted.
