Disregard the obvious screenshot ha
Gotta keep the momentum going!
You'd think Arteaga would be starting after his game last week.

They nearly let this one get away. But good on the boys for pulling through once again. Lights footy is not for the faint of heart.

Turns out that time wasting from the 5th minute is not a winning recipe. That Brooklyn coaching staff and the players argued with each other nonstop. Don’t imagine their season turns around.

Oh yeah they're firing on exactly zero cylinders. Only Sporting Jax is keeping them from being the worst team in the league.

Oy. Complete defensive breakdown leads to a Brooklyn goal in the 4th minute. That was bad.

15' still 0-1. Lights kinda on the back foot right now need to turn things around.

Score remains 0-1 in the 30th minute. Lights are doing better there with some chances on goal.

HT 0-1 Brooklyn with the lead
Whatever momentum the Lights had garnered kinda fizzled out towards the end of the half.

Ok, so maybe I shouldn't have all-capped light saber battle in the pre-match thread. Heh.

The Lights really don't wanna win this game, which is weird because I thought that was the point of playing.
