Charles Eloundou scored the first two goals of his NASL career and Jacksonville Armada FC ended a five-game losing streak in a 2-2 draw against the Carolina RailHawks at Community First Park on Saturday night.

Carolina (2-2-3, 8)  jumped in front in the seventh minute when Matt Fondy scored his third goal since joining the RailHawks after spending the Spring Season with Jacksonville (1-2-5, 5). Fondy converted a perfect pass from the Mexican veteran Omar Bravo, who drew two defenders to him before passing across the top of the goal box. Armada FC leveled the score in the 19th minute as Lucas Scaglia crossed from the right and Eloundou extended his right leg high and powered a shot over Akira Fitzgerald.

Eloundou gave Jacksonville the lead, scoring unassisted in the 50th minute on a left-footed shot placed in the upper corner. Bravo then tied the score when he headed in a cross from Steven Miller in the 68th minute.
