Comets take opening game of Florida doubleheader

The Kansas City Comets defeated the Orlando SeaWolves in a highly competitive contest that the Comets finished on top by the score of 9-7.

The Comets were without Alain Matingou for the second straight game while Lucas Rodriguez was on the bench but never played and served a yellow card in the second half.

The Comets found goals in the first quarter from Bryan Perez, Anthony Grant, and Leo Gibson as the SeaWolves scored twice, leaving the score at 3-2 to the Comets after 15 minutes of play.

The second quarter was highlighted by goals from Nacho and James Togbah as well as a red card given to Joshio Sandoval of Orlando, for putting on his Luis Suarez mask and biting KC’s Anthony Grant.
