Looking to continue the momentum established in its Women’s Premier Soccer League season opener, the Columbus Eagles hit the road this week to take on Cincinnati Sirens FC at Lakota West High School in West Chester, Ohio.
Saturday’s match added another chapter to the continuing rivalry between the two WPSL clubs. Both teams couldn’t be more different in how they attack the game of soccer. The Eagles play a style of possession-oriented soccer, while the Sirens opt for a more physical approach as they aim to stop play and frustrate the opposition. The rivalry between Columbus and Cincinnati has a mystique about it with neither team has claimed victory away from its home stadium.
