Dakota Fusion 0 vs Minnesota Thunder 7: 7 PM – Jim Gotta Stadium, Moorhead, MN – Magnitude Sports Network

Thunder rolled into Moorhead and scored in bursts. Despite the scoreline, the first goal took 20 minutes to arrive, and were followed by tallies in the 35th, 42nd and 45th minutes of the first half. These were supplemented by strikes in the 71st, 72nd and 85th minute. All but two of the goals were a result of well constructed Thunder play rather than bad defence by the home team. 13 goals in 2 games does tend to suggest the Thunder are really that good. For Fusion, it’s back to the coaches’ white board.
