The Strikers could have wrapped up the game versus the Atlanta Silverbacks in the first 45 minutes of their game this past Saturday at Lockhart stadium. They had a myriad of shots and chances, yet their lousy aim thwarted each effort. The second half was a whole different story as Atlanta nearly beat the Strikers with a 90th minute goal.

What a great night at Lockhart Stadium this Saturday when the Strikers defeated FC Edmonton 5-0 thanks to a hat trick by Abe Thompson and a brace by Brian Shriver. The team played inspired football and gave South Florida a true show that we hope we can see again next week as the playoffs continue.
The Strikers will face the Puerto Rico Islanders this coming Saturday in the first of 2 games to determine who advances to the NASL Finals.

As Striker Liker Christopher Walsh put it on the Ultras facebook page "The blood letting continues..." Yes, not long ago Coach Shore assured the fans on Miami Ultras Alive #30 (see minute 21) that he expected to keep the majority of his ALMOST championship team.
We've already seen a number of Strikers players packing their bags and moving to other teams.
