The Dos Pueblos boys soccer team took down Carpinteria 2-1 on Saturday in a non-league matchup.
After falling behind 1-0 on a Luis Garcia penalty kick, Charger Michael Elbert found the net after a beautiful touch from Osvaldo Becerril to tie up the match.
Elbert continued his torrid play by scoring the game winner in the 56th minute.
“Michael Elbert has transformed himself from a curiosity in some of our players’ eyes to a finisher with physical intentions that our players, parents,and opponents need to respect,” said Dos Pueblos coach Matt York.
With the victory, the Chargers improved to 2-1 on the season and next take on Moorpark at home on Monday.
