Posted at 00:00h in Friendlies, News by

Inochi Recella’s speed and finishing mentality worked against the visiting Rizal Football Association U14 team, as he scored all four goals in the Wings FC’s 4-0 victory in a Day 2 match in the U14 division of the 2013 Pacific Summer Invitational Football Tournament at the Guam Football Association National Training Center. Recella’s speed down the left flank helped the Wings FC take a 1-0 lead at halftime. Recella struck again early in the second half, connected on a Sean Evans long pass into the box for the 2-0 advantage. RIFA’s starting goalkeeper Joshua Gatchalian, who tried earnestly to stop the shot, left the game with an injury following the play. Moments later, Evans found Recella again for another goal. Recella later received a pass from Yae Kawauchi and launched a right-footed shot from the left side that snuck into goal for the final score.
