1 TO GO!!! CRUNCH ADVANCE TO M2 CHAMPIONSHIP!!!

 ~Wichita, Kansas~



The Cleveland Crunch made a statement in the M2 soccer playoffs by sending the Amarillo Bombers on a early vacation in blowout fashion. Winning 12-6 in what started out as a even contest. The Bombers would draw first blood, but Admir Suljevic would put one in the net on a shootout for the crunch to tie the game at 1-1. with 10 seconds left in the first, Suljevic(2) would strike again for the Crunch giving them a 2-1 lead over the Bombers going into the second period. The Bombers would score again to tie the game back at 2-2, but the Crunch would go on a 4 goal terror with goals scored by Derezic, Bell, Jordan, and Minick before the Bombers would even sniff the net again at with 16 seconds left before half time.

In the third period, Derezic(3), Jordan(3), and Beck would all score again to give the Crunch a 9-4 lead going into the last period of play. The fourth period was the close out period with Derezic, Jordan, and even the best goal keeper in the league Marijo Musa scoring a goal to close out the game giving the Crunch a 12-6 win and sending the Bombers on a early fishing trip.

With the win, The Crunch punch their ticket into the M2 championship game against the winner of the Wichita/ Chicago game later tonight. The Crunch will go into the championship game the highest scoring team in the league it showed tonight. Whoever the Crunch plays in the title game tomorrow will have their hands full defensively and facing the best goal keeper in the league wont be easy either. The Championship game will be streamed live on FTFnext.com tonight at 6:05pm. I'm still sticking with my pick of the Crunch bringing home another title for Cleveland.


IT'S CRUNCH TIME!!!

SWERVE VISIT THE LAND FOR ROUND 2!

Image
    Back in December, we as a network were in Cincinnati for the first meeting between the Swerve and Crunch. Although the Swerve won the match 9-8, there was a few if not abundance of fouls not called in favor of the Crunch. especially a foul that was missed right before time ran out on the night. Homefield advantage? Some would say so, but never-the-less the Swerve achieved their first ever win over the Crunch. Fast forward to Saturday night at the Soccerplex in North Olmstead where the Crunch will host the Swerve in could be a early pivitol match-up. A lot has changed since December and so have the MLIS standings. The Crunch now stand alone atop the division while the Swerve are clinging to third place and are a game behind Rapid City. This is the first of another back to back weekend for the Crunch as the will host the Swerve Saturday night and then head to Motown to play the Waza Flo in Detroit.
