The Kansas City Comets grabbed their second win of the Central Cup behind a strong second-half performance to defeat the St. Louis Ambush 7-3.
Ignacio Flores was out with a sprained ankle. Nicolau Neto, Matt Lewis, Robert Kelly, Rian Marques, Gui Gomes, and Kyle McLagan were also out of the lineup. The Comets added three players fighting to earn a contract: Felipe Abreu, Nick McDonald, and Jose “Ze” Ramos.
Stefan Mijatovic opened the scoring for the Ambush before Hector Solorio scored his first goal as a Comet just before the end of the first quarter. St. Louis restored their one-goal advantage in the second quarter after Duduca Carvalho scored to put the visitors up by one goal at halftime.
