US Futsal earn spot in CONCACAF semifinals
Thursday was a huge day for the U.S. Futsal National Team, setting the stage for an appearance in the semifinals of the CONCACAF Championships.
Chicago Storm goalkeeper Jeff Richey made a amazing 32 saves and former Wave midfielder Matthew Stewart scored a goal and assisted another as the U.S. upended Costa Rica, 6-2, to win Group B in Guatemala City, Guatemala. The U.S. will face the home team Guatemala Saturday in the semifinals. Guatemala ties 3-3 with Cuba on Thursday in Group A play.
A stellar effort by Richey, which included stopping Costa Rica's fifth attacker set with less than 9:00 remaining, came one day after containing Team Panama to a single goal.
"I thought Jeff played an unbelievable game in goal, and we needed that," U.S. head coach Keith Tozer said.
Stewart tallied the fifth goal for the U.S. against Costa Rica, while also forcing a turnover and getting the assist on Jamar Beasley's goal that gave the U.S. an early 1-0 lead.
"Matt brings so much heart and desire to the games that he plays in," Tozer said. "Matt came back today and played a superb game."
The U.S. defense held Costa Rica scoreless in the second half. while on the offensive side, six different players scored a goal in Team USA's victory. Former Wave player Pat Morris, Sandre Naumoski, Dan DeGeer and MISL Finals MVP Denison Cabral had the other scores for the U.S. as they continue their trek to defend their CONCACAF crown.
"It was a tremendous moment for U.S. futsal," Tozer said. "Our job is not done. We really want to qualify for the World Championships, which will be our first goal in our first match on Saturday. And with a victory there, then we'll go for the gold on Sunday."

Story Courtesy of the Chicago Storm
Chicago Storm goalkeeper Jeff Richey made 17 saves as the U.S. Futsal National Team played to a 1-1 draw Wednesday in the CONCACAF Futsal Championships in Group B play at Domo Polideportivo in Guatemala City, Guatemala.
The U.S. heads into a critical match at 1 p.m. (CST) on Thursday against Costa Rica. Team USA and Costa Rica are tied atop Group B with four points apiece. The winner is guaranteed a spot in Saturday’s semifinals. Costa Rica routed Haiti, 12-0, on Wednesday.
“Right now we have to beat Costa Rica to move on,” U.S. head coach Keith Tozer said. “We’ve played Costa Rica in this same scenario before and we’ve done it.”
The U.S. is 3-0 against Costa Rica all-time, including a 2004 victory in the CONCACAF Championships and a 2007 win in the Pan American Games. Costa Rica won the 2000 CONCACAF with a 2-0 victory against Cuba, which eliminated the U.S. in the semifinals.

Futsal features four field players and a goalkeeper on each team. Unlike the MISL, Futsal has no walls, the ball is smaller and has less bounce than traditional soccer balls, and the goals are much smaller. The game was invented in Brazil, and it is sanctioned by FIFA as the only form of international indoor soccer.
