Vaqueros fall 3-0 to Dallas City FC in rivalry match

The first meeting between D/FW rivals, the Fort Worth Vaqueros and Dallas

City FC, went to Big D.

The Vaqueros fell 3-0 to Dallas City FC at Dallas Bishop Lynch’s Roffino

Stadium on Saturday in NPSL South Central Conference play.

“This game was a hard pill to swallow due to the fact that their three goals

came off counter attacks,” Vaqueros coach Mark Snell said. “We controlled

the game for long periods of time and created a lot of chances, but we could

not finish. We will analyze the game and get ready to play them again on

Tuesday.”

Dallas City (2-1, 6 points) jumped out to an early lead with a 7th minute

goal. The Vaqueros (0-1-1, 1 point) kept the match tight into halftime.

Fort Worth created some quality chances early in the second half. However,

a rough two-minute patch saw Dallas City score a pair of goals in the

71st and 73rd minutes.

The Vaqueros won’t have long to wait before the chance at redemption.

Dallas City travels to Fort Worth on Tuesday for a 7:30 p.m. conference

match at Texas Wesleyan University’s Martin Field.
