Real San Jose opened the second season of the 2021-22 NSL Pacific with a tough 3-2 victory over San Pablo FC at De Anza High School in Richmond. Patrik Sofalvi scored twice in the first 6 minutes, Hector Herrera added a third early in the second half. Then things got interesting and a short handed RSJ held on to get away with the win.

Newly signed Julio Castro had a monster game on the right side, Carlos Munoz and Macgiver Trujillo had massive games in defense.
