Last night was a 2-1 win for the Zips. A first half goal (maybe 30 or 35 minutes in, I don't remember) was scored off a free kick. Not sure who was credited with the goal, it was just kinda knocked in from a scrum on the back post. The 2nd goal was fairly early in the 2nd half scored by Ferguson, a header from a nice cross. Detroit got a penalty with about 10 minutes left.

 

Kaminski was in goal for the Zips, I heard rumors that Budler has a minor injury. Bahur and Alem started for Akron (in for Filsinger and Borneo, I think?), with the rest of the Starting XI the same as last match, I believe. In my opinion, the Zips were not as good as the match against St Bonaventure, but it could be fatigue after 3 matches in very hot weather.

Jack Sullivan was also among the starters.

 

The Zips may have not been as good due to the dirty, physical play by Detroit Mercy. Unfortunately, a number of our players were injured as a result. The ref needed to have a better handle on it. I'm not a fan of cards in exhibition games, but some red cards were warranted but not given. Yellows were insufficient.
