Game Recap: Ayala Bulldogs vs. Diamond Bar Brahmas

In a highly anticipated Palomares League boys’ soccer match, the Ayala Bulldogs traveled to Diamond Bar High School to take on the Brahmas in a make-up game. The original match had been postponed due to poor air quality caused by recent wildfires in Southern California.

The game proved to be a defensive showcase, with the Diamond Bar Brahmas holding the undefeated Bulldogs scoreless for nearly the entire duration of the match. The Brahmas displayed impressive resilience and disciplined defensive play.

As the game neared its conclusion, it seemed destined to end in a draw. However, with less than two minutes remaining, Ayala’s Ryan Kilde delivered a clutch moment, scoring the game’s only goal off an assist from Julian Chavez. The dramatic late-game strike secured a hard-fought 1-0 victory for the Bulldogs.
