According to the roster report, only Morgan and Engan are unavailable, I thought all of the Internationals were going to be out? So Marta and Company will be playing?
I was told Internationals would not be available, but what do I know? Anyone not playing should be listed on the roster report.
Well Sinclair's twitter says tonight is her last night in Buffalo for a while. Maybe she is leaving after the game tomorrow night?
If thats the case, I would bet Zerboni and Lewandowski getting the start on D. Engen will be missed but Zerboni has stepped up nicley every chance she had this year.
Taken From Jeff V's match preview article in todays D&C: The Flash will be without forward Alex Morgan and Sky Blue won't have midfielders Heather O'Reilly and Tobin Heath tonight. They're with the United States national team as it preps for Sunday's final tuneup before the World Cup. The Americans face Mexico - 2:00 pm ET on ESPN2. The Flash will also lose Carolina Seger and Canadians Christine Sinclair and defender Candace Chapman after tonight as they join their national teams, but aren't expected to lose Marta (Brazil) until after June 12 vs. Philadelphia. Of course the most important thing is what happens after the game ends: Fans who show their ticket upon exiting get a free pound of Sahlen's hot dogs (maximum 3,000 fans get this honor) Wish I could be there in person! GO FLASH! LB...
No LIVE coverage of the game tonight on any of the Time Warner Cable Sportsnet Channels - Buffalo is showing LIVE MLL Lacrosse - Denver at Long Island on its main channel and LIVE AHL Hockey- Calder Cup Finals-Game #4-Houston at Binghamton on its backup channel. (Boo! Would have been a nice soccer doubleheader - attend one of my cousins kids soccer matches and then come home and watch my recording of the Flash soccer match.) Rochester has Red Wings baseball game on its main channel and the hockey game on its backup channel. Syracuse has the hockey game on its main channel and the lacrosse on its backup channel. Albany is showing the hockey game on its main channel-they don't have a backup channel. So the soccer match will be shown via tape delay - it will be shown on Saturday at 8:00 pm ET on both Buffalo and Rochester channels. Syracuse will show it Sunday at 5:00 pm ET while I'm not sure about Albany - site is down at the moment - although I do know it won't be Saturday at 8:00 pm ET - LIVE AHL Hockey-Calder Cup Finals-Game #5-Houston at Binghamton will be shown then. GO FLASH! LB...
For the first time this season I had to question Coach Lines starting Kimberly Brandao on defense , and the substitutions of Seagar and Bock at the same time in the second half. IMO after that substitution the Flash lost momentum. And I would have liked to seen McCall Zerboni get the start on D {she did a superb job on D earlier in the year}
Well now that Engen didn't make the world cup team, I would expect to see Wilson, Lewandowski, Engen, and Zerboni across the backline. (Hopefully)
