The Kansas City Comets return home undefeated after beating the Dallas Sidekicks 6-4 Saturday. Player-coach Leo Gibson led the way with three goals and an assist while Lucas Sousa had two goals and veteran John Sosa added a goal and an assist.
Dallas started strong, controlling the ball well and striking first midway through the first quarter when Oscar Romero drove a ball low to the far post just under Nicolau Neto’s reach.
After the goal, the Comets asserted themselves and outshot the Sidekicks in the first quarter 7-5 but could not find the net.
The second quarter started better for the visitors and less than five minutes in they broke through the staunch defense of Dallas keeper Juan Gamboa.
