The Bulldogs  had an early offensive push, but committed an offsides violation in the 6th minute of the first half. Glendale earned a free kick in the 28th minute of play, but Erik Tsaturyan was unable to put the Niros ahead. The Bulldogs had opportunities at goal in the 31st and 33rd minutes by Aram Varduyman and Joseph Chavez, but failed to convert. Just before halftime, Grigor Parian missed an opportunity to score the game’s first goal and both teams headed into the halftime break scoreless.

Tsaturyan had another opportunity to give the Nitros the lead, but his 9th minute chance missed.  The Bulldogs committed their second offsides of the game in the 14th minute of play, halting another offensive push. The defenses for both teams put on a clinic and neither had any more real chances to score goals throughout the second half. They battled against each other until the final whistle, with the match ending in a scoreless tie.

Quote of the week

“I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.“
