Comets Defeat Wichita and Remain Undefeated

November 22, 2014 - Major Arena Soccer League (MASL) Missouri Comets INDEPENDENCE, MO - The Missouri Comets (4-0) continued their hot play and remained undefeated after defeating the Wichita B-52s (1-3) 13-3 at the Independence Events Center on Saturday night.

The Wichita B-52s were not able to contain the Comets' offense who scored two goals in less than a one-minute span in three different occasions. Defender Brian Harris was elected Man of the Match with four goals. A total of seven different players scored for the reigning MISL Champions.

Halfway through the first quarter, Alain Matingou found the back of the net for the third time this season. The Paris, France native left former Comets goalkeeper Boris Pardo with no chances to stop a short range shot, which made it 1-0.

Moments later, defender Brian Harris blasted a rocket from outside the box to the top left corner and made it 2-0 for Head Coach Vlatko Andonovski's team before the end of the first quarter.

The Comets came out stronger in the second quarter and scored four straight goals before the B-52s notched their first tally of the evening.

Coady Andrews, Bryan Perez and Max Touloute twice, scored for the Comets before Daniel Sack scored for the Wichita B-52s to end the half with a score of 6-1.

Head Coach Jeff Kraft's team tried hard to contain ball possession but the Comets' pressure was too much for Wichita in the third quarter, which saw Harris tally two more goals along with Perez' second goal to end the quarter 9-1.

The fourth and final quarter saw a total of six goals, three for each team. Travis Pittman and Brady Bryant converted two defensive mistakes but Harris with a wild line scored his fourth of the night before Leo Gibson tallied his eleventh and twelfth goals of the season in addition to a Andre Braithwaite goal to end the game with a final score of 13-3.

Next up, the Missouri Comets will try to earn their fifth consecutive win as they visit the Harrisburg Heat next Saturday, November 29 at 7:00 p.m.
