HARRISBURG -- Darryl Roberts and Jorge Herrera each tallied goals in the second half Friday as Charlotte rallied to defeat Harrisburg 2-1 in the City Islanders' home opener at Skyline Sports Complex.
Antoine Hoppenot drilled a feed from Sainey Touray into the back of the net in the 47th minute to give the City Islanders (1-1-1) a 1-0 lead.
Roberts, however, responded in the 66th minute off a pass from Joseph Kabwe, who had just entered the game in the 61st minute. Kabwe also set up Herrera's game-winner just seven minutes later.
Charlotte is now 2-4-1 on the season.
