Blues snap losing streak, still might make playoffs plus Pictures and Video

It took 8 games for Miami FC to finally win one as they came from behind and scored an important victory over the Austin Aztex at FIU Stadium on Saturday. The fans led by the Miami Ultras came out on a wet night and were rewarded with a stellar performance by Midfielder Brian Shriver who was awarded man of the match.

Austin scored first but Leo Inacio Nunes tied the game for the Blues Alan Marcina put the team up 2-1 right before half time. The secon half saw King score the third goal and secured the 3 points. Zinho's new line up proved to be a good one. The additions of Shriver, Pizarro and Aaron King have made a difference. It seems King and Marcina up top is the right formula. Missing was Paulo Jr who in my opinion would mesh well with these new players.Miami lined up with Pat "The Man" Hannigan at goal, Tim Merritt, Junior Baiano, Jack Traynor and Zach "Beowulf" Kirby on Defense. Midfielders Jarryd Goldberg, Leo Inacio, Nelson Pizarro and Brian Shriver. Aaron King and Alen Marcina up top.

The Blues will play at Lockhart Stadium this Tuesday, Sept. 8th at 8 p.m.

A special mention goes out to JRuiz and his crew who added that special flair with the 305 flag! They also added to the Ultras drum ensemble and were the winners of the Cow Bell tickets. Good job guys and we hope to see you at the rest of the games!

Miami ties in the last minute with Fan videos

This weekend I was a little late to write about the game, suffice to say the Blues came back from what seemed a loss and shocked us with a late goal that sent the fans into a frenzy. The Miami Ultras as always were present as well as a surprisingly loud Southern Legion. I hope they started a trend and will make it to more games.

Miami FC beats the Vancouver Whitecaps will now face the Portland Timbers

"With key players such as Diego Serna out, Miami FC continued its recent strong play and defeated Vancouver 2-1 at FIU Stadium." Adam Beasley of the Miami Herald

Things are looking good for the Blues on the field as they remain unbeaten at FIU Stadium. Miami looked strong in the first half and could have increased the score if their players had better aim. Numerous opportunities were wasted. Miami took a 1-0 lead in the 5th minute on a goal by Alan Marcina. Leo Inacio made it 2-0 on a penalty kick awarded after defender Jeff Parke grabbed the ball in the area with his hands.

The Second half saw the Whitecaps come on strong in search of some goals but it wasn't until a red card given to Alen Marcina towards the end of the match that the Whitecaps were able to score with only two minutes left in the game. Dever Orgill gave Vancouver some hope but the game was sealed, final 2-1 for the Blues.

With the win, Miami FC is in sixth place and is only four points behind the Rochester Rhinos. The Blues will now play two consecutive games against the second place Timbers on Friday 8PM and Sunday 6PM at FIU Stadium. For more information visit www.miamifc.com
