After surrendering an equalizing goal late in the second half, the Northern Virginia Royals ended their 2010 season with a dramatic game-winning goal in stoppage time to top the Hampton Roads Piranhas 2-1 Sunday night. After peppering the Hampton Roads goal with 25 shots throughout the match, Royal forward Stanley Kaweesi blasted home the final shot of the season in the waning moments to earn the Northern Virginia victory.
The Royals (6-6-4) finished the season in fifth place of the ten-team PDL Mid Atlantic Division.
Northern Virginia set the game tempo early, rocketing a shot at the Piranhas goal in the first minute of the match that clanged off the goalpost and ricocheted just wide. The Royals struck the goalpost again in the 22nd minute, yet the shot rebounded away from the net for the second time in the half.
The deadlock was broken early in the second half when Kaweesi broke free behind the Hampton Roads defense and drove a low cross back to the charging Royal midfielder Richard Edgar. Edgar buried the shot with authority, sending it untouched past the sprawling keeper Ryan Zmuda for the lead in the 51st minute.
