EL PASO, TEXAS – May 9, 2026 – El Paso Locomotive FC fell to Oakland Roots SC 2-1 on Saturday night for their first road loss of the regular season.
Rubio Rubín started the scoring early for El Paso, finding the back of the net just three minutes in for his seventh goal on the season. Locomotive road the momentum from the opening goal, with Álvaro Quezada creating a scoring chance that forced a save from the Roots goalkeeper.
The game shifted in the 18th minute when El Paso’s Palermo Ortiz was shown a straight red card after making contact with an Oakland player. Locomotive went down a man and would be chasing the game for the remainder of the match.
A 10-man Locomotive team was able to hold Oakland scoreless until stoppage time of the opening half when Peter Wilson scored from inside the six-yard box to tie the match at 1-1. The second half was all Roots, who controlled 62% of the possession. Oakland’s constant pressure broke through El Paso’s defense in the 83rd minute as Tucker Leplay sent a screamer into the upper left corner to give Oakland the lead.
The Roots were able to hold off Locomotive in the final seven minutes, plus stoppage time, to hand El Paso their first regular season road loss of the year.
