Philadelphia: As we know, there are going to be ups and downs, and that is what we are seeing with the Philadelphia Wings as they try to get things figured out. They took on the Saskatchewan Rush on Sunday Afternoon at Xfinity Mobile Arena in South Philly. The Wings came into the game with a record of 2-7 & and coming off a very tough loss to Calgary, while Saskatchewan would make its way to South Philly as the top team in the NLL with a 9-1 record.
How the game went:
The Philadelphia Wings would come out and jump all over Saskatchewan for the 3-0 lead and it featured a sick goal from Sam LeClair.
The Wings would take a 3-0 lead at the end of the 1st quarter, which saw goals from Liam Patten & Brennan O’Neill. Saskatchewan would wake up and get the game tied at 3 & in the 2nd quarter, Wings, Brennan O’Neill would hit a milestone with his 2nd goal of the game by hitting his 100th NLL point with this goal
The Philadelphia Wings were hanging with the top team in the League and were keeping it close as they were tied at halftime & the same thing that has hurt the Wings all season, which is their starts to the 2nd half, & it would show as Saskatchewan Rush came out and made the plays that the Wings just could not make.
This goal from the Saskatchewan Rush basically showed that they could finish their attempts
As the final horn sounded, another game that the Wings just could not find the connections needed to take down one of the top teams in the league, as Saskatchewan Rush leaves Philly with the 14-6 win, there were some BOOOO from the crowd as the Wings were heading off the field.
