At the top of the screen where light and shadow are intertwined, Mace swings freely and sends Zodi Abba into the world of "Bobo" with a subtle assist.
The first round of the Eastern Conference of the Pro School Playoffs resumed on Saturday morning at Campus Arena in the Land of the United States of America, with Miami International knocking on the door of advancement with a narrow 2-1 victory over Atlanta Union at home. In this fateful matchup, Ballon d'Or's Mace once again played the role of savior, as his pinpoint assist helped Zodi Ebba hit the back of the net.
The Miami Internationals, who said goodbye to the playoffs last season, have risen from the ashes to return to the postseason as regular season champions, and this is the first time that the Mets have ever set foot in the postseason. After a brief period of discomfort, Miami International broke the deadlock quickly with a quick counterattack by Suarez. However, Atlanta's Major League Soccer team, led by wing forward Lubao Ennidis, equalized late in the first half to make it 1-1 at halftime.
With the game at a stalemate, the match reached the 60th minute when Mays deftly broke away from the defense on the right side with a pinpoint cross that he set his sights on teammate Zodi Ebba, who snapped into position and cracked a powerful long-range shot from about 30 yards away from the goal.
Since joining Miami International, Mays has contributed 18 assists to the team, tying him with teammate Robert Taylor for the team's all-time assist lead. Miami International will be back for another challenge on November 3rd.
