ZEIKO LEWIS
Zeiko Lewis and his Charleston Battery teammates played to a 1-1 draw against Atlanta United 2 at MUSC Health Stadium.
Atlanta United opened the scoring in the 71st minute through midfielder Laurent Kissiedou. With his back to goal, Kissiedou turned on a shot from six yards out to beat Joe Kuzminsky at the right post. Kuzminsky kept things close through the second half making a number of crucial saves to keep the Battery within striking distance. Kuzminsky’s hard work would be rewarded with an equalizing goal later in the half.
Lewis would level things eight minutes later, finding the back of the net from a corner. Lewis whipped in a hard cross to the top right corner of the goal and forced the goalkeeper into making a play on the ball. The Atlanta United 2 keeper got his fingertips to the ball but didn’t have enough to tip the ball over the goal. “I’ve scored goals like that before,” said Lewis. “Our game plan was to challenge the goalkeeper from our corners and that’s what I tried to do. We put two guys on the near post in front of him and it gave him trouble.”
“I think we could have executed a bit better, especially me in front of goal,” said Lewis after the match. “We kept the unbeaten streak at home going and that’s all that matters.”
