Final match of the Carolina Challenge Cup Saturday at Balckbaud Stadium. First match up will be DC United v. TFC. DC can win the CCC with a win or draw over Toronto. The Second match will Charleston v. Chicago Fire. The Battery looked pretty good against TFC on Wed night. HOpefully they can maintain the defense and create a few chances against the Fire on Saturday. The Battery can win the tournament with a DC loss to Toronto and a win over Chicago. the matches will be streamed via clubs websites begining at 5pm for the first match and 7:15 (ish) for the second match. Tailgate will start around 2:30 near the East Stand Entrance. Pulled pork, venison sausage, hamburgers, enchilladas, and more. Just bring a few beers to share.
Hey if theres a chance to win it....I'm in. I would take a chance over no chance. Charleston to win 2-0, Toronto to win 2-1 Up the Battery!!!
