This Week 9-22-25

Our weekend coverage was at San Jose for the Quakes loss to St. Louis and Bay FC drawing even with Gotham FC.

Soccer Bay Area has two reports with the first one from Kevin Ngyuen reporting on the Quakes downslide after getting off to a fast start to the season, and why they could be on the outside looking in once more if they cannot get results with three games left.

The second one comes from Michael Koenig with the Roots drawing even with Tulsa 1-1 and like the South Bay club they need to get results to qualify for the playoffs.  Jonathan Comeaux at The Oakland Roots Blog also has his take on the match knowing that the points and team performance are going to be key in the stretch run.
