Late Sanderson goal takes Independence past Sky Blue

Mon 8th, August 2011

Chester, PA (Sports Network) - Lianne Sanderson recorded a late goal to give the Philadelphia Independence a 2-1 home win over Sky Blue FC on Sunday.

Philadelphia's Tasha Kai and Sky Blue's Eniola Aluko traded first half goals at Leslie C. Quick Stadium before Sanderson provided the winner in the 90th minute.

An Abby Wambach brace gave magicJack a playoff berth in a 2-0 road win over the Boston Breakers.

Boston is now battling with Sky Blue FC for the fourth and final playoff spot. Sky Blue currently occupies fourth spot with 19 points, but the Breakers only trail by three points with one match remaining.
