(CBS DETROIT) – After a tough draw away to Kalamazoo FC on Tuesday night, Detroit City FC will look to get back to winning ways and continue its undefeated streak when it welcomes AFC Ann Arbor to Keyworth Stadium on Saturday. Kickoff is at 4:00 PM and the game will be streamed live on CBSDetroit.com.
In a midweek match that turned scrappy at times, Detroit City FC created the best chances on the road to Kalamazoo FC, but found themselves unable to break the deadlock. Forwards Hannah Crum and Emily Pagett came closest to opening the scoring, but both were denied by saves from the Kalamazoo goalkeeper.
AFC Ann Arbor enters Saturday’s game looking to regain momentum after a 4-1 loss to Midwest United FC on Michigan’s west side. Ann Arbor fell behind early in the match and trailed 2-0 after ten minutes of play. The loss dropped them to third place in the Great Lakes Division, bringing their record to 3-1-2 on the season.
Last season, Detroit City FC dominated AFC Ann Arbor in both meetings between the two teams, with Le Rouge emerging victorious at Keyworth Stadium 4-1, before ending their regular season with a 6-0 defeat in a rain shortened game in Ann Arbor.
Longtime Detroit City FC fans will remember AFC Ann Arbor from when Le Rouge competed in the National Premier Soccer League (NPSL). These two clubs first met in 2016 when AFC Ann Arbor played Detroit City FC in the club’s first-ever match at Keyworth Stadium, which ended in a 1-1 draw.
