SFCC (0-3-1) found the back of the net late in the opening half with a goal from Jervan Matthew with an assist from Dario Catalan. The Roadrunners continued to battle in the second half but would get no closer.
Bruno Bas Berdiel led SFCC in shots with three. Adrian Fernandez got the start in goal for SFCC and played the first half. Kamryn Bridges played the second half for SFCC in goal.
"St. Charles is a good team," said head coach Michael Poropat. "They didn't need any help from us. Unfortunately, today we helped them. Some of the damage was self-inflicted. In the second half, we did a better job of executing the game plan defensively. We look forward to the match on Tuesday against John Wood."
