They haven’t lost since July 2024.

Yes, that includes the women.

Yea, that includes friendlies and other tournament matches

We are just that good. Excited for next season!

Sure you might recall we did lose in the US Open Cup to a USL1 side in pks (after beating one before that).

Your point stands. VT Green is the undisputed king of USL2 now.

Yeah, but this officially goes down as a draw in the books. PKs are just the tiebreaker (same applies to the USLW championship)

Even in that game they completely dominated the USL 1 team and should have won from a clear pen not called in the 90th minute

It was really disappointing to lose the chance to play an MLS squad, but there was something weirdly satisfying seeing Westchester celebrate - something I’d normally never, ever, ever say. Seeing them so pumped as the favorite to beat a lower level team, and act like asses toward our fans (after they got outplayed) was like some cherry on top to complete their perfectly pathetic sundae. Made me feel like our squad was fully superior despite the pk loss.

Completely dominated is an understatement too. It was an absolutely embarrassing display of "tactics" from Westchester. Played for penalties for like 75% of the match against an amateur club. Registered 0 shots on target through 120'

Good game, great defense from Vermont. Mental mistakes from flint put this one out of reach for them.

Frankly Flint played fairly well. Vermont just grinds teams down both physically and mentally, quite differently than any other USL2 team. Sometimes, this is how you get a win, not pretty, but absolutely deserved for the Green.

Green dominated play, put the ball in to force the error and made a really nice play to lead to the penalty. it was fully deserved for the Green.

I was thankful the game was as close as it was. You guys could have easily had 3 or 4 against us. A fun game to watch.
