    Minnesota lost away to us, 2-0, last Saturday, defeated Puerto Rico at home, 4-0, on Wednesday & tonight they lost at home against the last place Atlanta Silverbacks, 2-0. They're a mixed bag right now, but I feel we can leave Blaine, Minn. with a result as we did a few weeks back.

    GO ROWDIES!!! :)

    I'll take a tie, but obviously a win would be huge as we are in a battle for a top two spot. All NASL results tonight went our way.

    Minnesota is never easy and I'd expect them to have a fire lit under their asses for this one. Should be a very interesting game.

    This game will be interesting and it should go in our favor. We are on a hot streak and Minnesota is struggling.

    I agree with Speedcake, Minnesota is never easy... so I would be happy with a tie on the road, too :cautious:

    Guess the lack of comments means everyone else was as underwhelmed as I was with this one. We showed spirit coming back from 2-0 down, but I was a bit disappointed that we weren't ready for this match. Still mystifies me that Antoniuk doesn't get more minutes. I do believe that Picault will eventually settle in and be a great threat down the stretch run.

    Unfortunately, I think this was a crucial chance we squandered to nudge our way into the top two spots. Makes the next three matches, two against the Eddies and the Islanders, very important. Need to rack up another winning streak.

    yeah it was a disappointing loss, but to be fair we won four straight before this and considering our win tonight I don't think we should be too hung up on this result. Minnesota are a solid team and yeah, we didn't play our best but give them some credit as well.
