    PRESS RELEASE: Reading Falls in Season Opener

    Reading United A.C. 3103 Paper Mill Rd. Wyomissing, PA 19610 www.readingunitedac.com Press Release Contact: Ryan Lineaweaver, Director of Communications and Marketing [email protected] 610-914-6971 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Reading Falls In Season Opener A four-goal halftime deficit was too much for United in loss BETHLEHEM, PA (May 16, 2021) – A four-goal stretch across just 16 minutes of game time proved to be too much for Reading United to overcome in a 5-1 loss to Lehigh Valley United on Saturday evening. With the loss, Reading drops to 0-1 on the season, while LVU improved to 1-1. Goals in the 23rd, 27th, 31st, and 39th minutes by the home side put Reading in a position it hasn’t been in over a decade’s worth of games. Midfield miscommunication and turnovers led to several counter attacks which left Reading stunned. A fifth LVU goal in the 70th minute shut the door permanently. Nick Pariano put in his first in a United kit to pull one back for Reading in the 73rd minute, but it was much too late for Reading to mount a significant comeback. Pariano led the team with four of their seven shots. Lyam MacKinnon had two of his own, while Marcus Brenes had one. Carson Williams made five saves in net. Reading looks to get back on the winning track on Wednesday evening, as they face the 2-0-1 West Chester United SC in West Chester. ABOUT READING UNITED AC Reading United A.C. is the Greater Reading area’s premier minor league soccer team.

Wyomissing, PA 19610 www.readingunitedac.com Press Release Contact: Sean Doyle, Media Coordinator [email protected] 484-269-0319 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Reading United dominate Lehigh Valley United, win 5-0 Hideki’s hot streak continues as his hat-trick leads Reading past their nearest rivals READING, PA (July 14, 2019) – A three goal outburst early in the first half powered Reading United to a 5-0 victory over visiting Lehigh Valley United at Wilson High School’s Gurski Stadium in the final match of the 2019 USL League Two regular season. Team captain Felipe Hideki paced United, scoring three goals for the 2019 Mid-Atlantic Division champions, while Troy Anspacher and Bakary Bagayoko also scored in Reading’s 10th win of the season. Jose Carlos Mercado made three stops to help Reading United post their eighth shutout of the 2019 term. Reading United’s three goal outburst began in the 15th minute. Defender Richie Schlentz played a perfectly weighted through ball to Hideki, who made a well-timed run past the Lehigh Valley United defense. The veteran midfielder, who’s been in excellent form with four goals in five matches prior to the game against Lehigh Valley, made no mistake as he slotted the ball past LVU goalkeeper Joseph Valeriano for his fifth goal of the season. Hideki set up Reading United’s second goal when he was hauled down from behind in the box in the 19th minute after rounding his Lehigh Valley marker. The referee awarded Reading United a penalty kick.
