It was a game of firsts. Gremio beat Chupacabras 7-5 in a night of many unusual events. Sory scored a goal, his first of the season and first in over a year, his last tally was in 09 winter 1 session.
Brian also had his first goal of the season. Back in the lineup, Rick had his first start in goal and got his first W as a GK. John had his first career hat-trick for Gremio and, finally, Karin and Mauricio had three assists each, for both players probably the first time with 3 assists in a game.
The tricolor came inspired on Sory’s early message, “there is only one option tonight "WIN". If you like yourself, get out of my way tonight” he said. John led the way with three goals, but Sory, Brian, Kevin and Steve also scored on the 7-5 win.
Gremio improved to 18 points (6-1-0) and will now conclude the regular season next Wednesday, Jan 19, vs. Poundin Mitts at 10:30.
