Sac Republic grab their first result against OCSC courtesy of hometown rookie.

Kibunguchy came off the bench in the 90th minute, and the Sac Republic academy product scored the equalizer in the 94th minute to lift the visitors’ spirits and giv...

Another result, but not yet a win. The San Jose Earthquakes posted their second road draw on the trot, but their winless run now stretches to nine games, after tying the Colorado Rapids 1-1 at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park on Saturday.
This was another credible performance on the road for the Earthquakes, but as they try to find traction in their season and come back, they really need wins at this point and are still lacking the cutting edge to hold onto a lead,...

Team understandably relieved to win. It’s not revolutionary to say that one potential route to victory in soccer is to score before your opponent. Of course, the opponent could score afterwards, but in the case of Sacramento Republic on Wednesday, a first-half brace powered a long-awaited 2-1 win over Las Vegas Lights in Las Vegas.
Tucker Bone provided the spark, the Sacramento area native’s goals propelling Republic FC to victory, and as one would imagine after ...

Defender feeling more comfortable while still soaking it all in. The MLS Draft may no longer be a place where teams find lock-down starters every year, but it remains a place where teams can find solid domestic defenders.
San Jose Earthquakes defender Tanner Beason was drafted ahead of the 2020 season out of Stanford and amid the disruptive season that came during the pandemic, he didn’t get a ton of attention, but played his way int...

Bone’s brace snaps SRFC’s long winless streak. It took a full two months, but Sacramento Republic FC snapped their nine-game winless streak in USL Championship play on Wednesday, after defeating Las Vegas Lights FC 2-1 at Cashman Field.
Las Vegas, the last team Sacramento beat back on May 12, provided the slump-busting performance Republic FC desperately needed, as a first-half brace from Tucker bone made the difference on the night.

Earthquakes manager thrilled title drought is over. “Yes, I am very happy for my country.”
It was a stunning moment on the San Jose Earthquakes beat: head coach Matias Almeyda responding to a question in English, something he does not do, as he normally answers questions in his native Spanish.
But the circumstances that brought us to that moment on Wednesday were stunning too, after Argentina won the 2021 Copa América last weekend.
Considering Argentina is a soccer-crazed country general...

Small consolation, but they got it right in the end. Nabi Kibunguchy received a red card in Sacramento Republic FC’s last game, a 2-0 loss to Orange County SC on Saturday, but it turns out what looked like a questionable call was indeed incorrect.
Kibunguchy appeared to have received a DOGSO (denial of an obvious goal-scoring opportunity) straight red card for a foul just before halftime, but it appeared another Republic FC defender was in the immediate vicinity,...

Republic FC’s slump drags on in red card-filled loss. Sacramento Republic FC conceded two first-half goals, then picked up two red cards, as they lost 2-0 to Orange County SC on Saturday at Heart Health Park.
Sacramento’s winless run is now nine games, and the loss arrests any kind of progress the team might have felt they made midweek in a draw against Oakland Roots. While Orange County have been stellar in recent months, the latest poor result has to be a major...
