In a rivalry game that was the home opener for SF City, and the season opener for the Glens the two teams picked off where they left off last year at Kezar. While the Glens got on the board early, it was City that drew even at 1-1 only to see the visitors take the lead 2-1. However, the result was different this time with the home team winning 3-2.
City will hit the road with a game at San Diego on Saturday May 11 5pm kickoff. The Glens will do so likewise with two Southern California matches against the Golden State Force on Friday May 10 at 7pm and at the Orange County 2 on Sunday May 12 at 2pm before opening up their home schedule on Friday May 17 at 6pm against the Santa Cruz Breakers.
In a match to kick off the national USL League Two Schedule, SF City picked off where they left off last year with a road trip to Santa Cruz. With the game held under the Friday Night Lights they scored a quick goal in the 3rd minute followed by another in the 20th to give a 2-0 halftime lead. The Breakers scored a goal in the 75th minute but it was the only one they would have for the night. Thanks to an insurance goal in the 78th minute SF City gets the 3-1 victory.

Santa Cruz will hit the road with two games starting with Ventura County on Friday May 10 7pm start time, followed by a Sunday May 12 2pm match to Whittier against the Golden State Force.
A bit of a catch up – the USL League Two (formerly PDL) season begins this week so something from last season and leading up to the season opener on Friday May 3 and the home opener on Sunday May 5.
For now, the topic is the road finale against Santa Cruz. The season ended last year with them, and starts with them to begin 2019. So, picking up where things were left off.
Right now, there isn’t a set from the SF City Facebook page so just going to proceed with the other highlights. The other matches are skipped for now, so the show must go on.
In their final tuneup before opening up the 2019 USL League 2 (formerly PDL) season at Santa Cruz, City scored a goal in the second half to get a 1-0 over hosts Menlo College at their Atherton campus. However, the hosts were able to sneak in a goal in the waning minutes of the match to get a 1-1 draw.
SF City opens up their season with a road trip at Santa Cruz on Friday May 3 at 8pm. They kick off their home opener against inter-city rival the Glens 2 days later on Sunday May 5 at 6pm.
After a 9 month hiatus SF City finally made their 2019 debut with a friendly against the Academy of Art at the Beach Chalet fields. The result did not go their way as the college scored 3 unanswered goals to give them a 3-1 win. The match was merely to try out some players who could make the roster at the start of their USL League 2 (formerly PDL) campaign beginning May 3.
The set on the Flickr cloud:
The Academy of Art will once again play at the Beach Chalet on Friday April 19 against another League 2 club the San Francisco Glens, kickoff at 8pm. SF City will have another preseason game at Redwood City against Menlo College at Cañada College 4200 Farm Hill Blvd at 3pm.
This edition showcases San Francisco City FC. However, taking this in a bit different course and concentrating on the Norcal Premiership years of 2015 before they became a PDL (now League Two) club the following year.
The selection was too big that we had to split this into two parts. This time we are focusing on the best of the fall schedule that led to the 2016 NorCal Premier title–which was the last hurrah before moving up to what was called the PDL.

The USL League Two schedule was announced today and both SF City and the SF Glens have a full slate of matches on the docket.
First up City will hit the road at Santa Cruz on Friday May 3 at 7pm before having their home opener on Sunday May 5 at 6pm against, you guessed it, the Glens. That match also serves as the visiting team’s season opener. The Glens in turn will open their Boxer Stadium slate on Friday May 17 at 6pm hosting Santa Cruz. The return leg between the two SF sides at Boxer Stadium will be on Tuesday July 2 at 6pm .
The full slate of games are as follows – from the USL League Two site.
In addition to the San Jose Earthquakes, 3pointsport.com is also the flagship site for SF City matches. We will also be covering select SF Glens games in addition to the two rivalry games at Kezar and Boxer. Keep checking the site for the latest in news, photos, and information.
It looks like Quakes defender Nick Lima will have his chance to earn his first cap either against Panama or Costa Rica. All of the players on Gregg Berhalter’s team are MLS based players and are hoping to earn a further look as the US team begins their Gold Cup run this year, and eventually their World Cup qualifying run in 2022.
The Quakes will begin their pre-season camp in Cancun, Mexico. One game is slated to be played there before returning to the US for a 3 game warmup at Reno on February 9, a closed door match against LAFC on February 16, and the traditional pre-season warmup on February 23 against the Seattle Sounders.
From the SF Glens Instagram. Their USL League Two (previously the PDL) schedule will be announced on Wednesday January 30, and that will include the home and home matches against cross town rival SF City–which we can best presume they will announce their season as well. (We await their schedule but 2019 memberships are available here.) A major note is that Fresno FC U23s is not on the list and that the Northern California group will include the San Francisco teams and the second year Santa Cruz Breakers. Stay tuned to 3pointsport for more USL League Two news.
