Time after time this spring, Santa Clara Sporting Green have been tested in matches, and each time they’ve passed in a season that saw them capture the NPL Champions League title with a perfect 7-0-0 record. Sporting will look to inch closer to a double with a victory over a San Juan Ron squad that fired in an opportunistic victory over the last weekend. Down 2-0 late in the game, San Juan scored three times to down the Alpine Strikers and move into a match against the favorites of the tournament. |

5/13 | Force | ![](https://norcalpremier.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/de-anza-force.png) | 11:10 AM | ![](https://norcalpremier.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Marin-FC.png) | Marin FC |
These two squads played in two of the most exciting matches of the weekend in the quarterfinal round, with Force I staving off two comeback attempts from Placer United to win on penalties and Marin FC turning a 4-2 deficit against the Lobos into a 6-4 victory. Together, the pair of sides combined for games with 16 total goals, and more are expected this weekend when the two squads meet with a final berth on the line. |
