July 19, 2022 – United Soccer League One (USL1) – Northern Colorado Hailstorm FC News Release
WINDSOR, Colo. – Northern Colorado Hailstorm goalkeeper Johan Peñaranda is up for the USL League One Fans’ Choice Save of the Week, for Week 16.
Peñaranda was forced off the bench and into action when starting goalkeeper Thomas Olsen was shown a second yellow card, resulting in a red card in Sunday’s match against Charlotte Independence.
Minutes after being brought into the game, Charlotte whipped a cross in that bounced across the face of goal. Charlotte’s Khori Bennett was able to get his head on the ball and put a shot on target that surely looked like it was going to bring his side back into the game. Peñaranda was ready for it, though, and was able to get a glove on the shot to deflect the ball for his defense to clear the danger away.
The fan voting is now open.
The future home of Northern Colorado Hailstorm FC, 118-acre Future Legends Complex will feature 6,500-seat TicketSmarter Stadium, 2,500-seat Future Legends Field, multiple baseball diamonds, and multi-purpose fields, an indoor sports arena, lodging, and retail; and will host guests for major sports tournaments, events, leagues, and more.
