Wave Head to STL to Take on Much Talked About Ambush Sunday Afternoon

After a thrilling season opening overtime win at home against the rival Kansas City Comets, the 7-time champion Milwaukee Wave were quickly back to work to prepare for another Missouri team that is turning into a headache for them; the much talked about St. Louis Ambush.

“With the roster the Ambush have this season we know it’s going to be a difficult game,” said Milwaukee Wave Head Coach Giuliano Oliviero. “They seem to turn up their game every time they play us.”

In the offseason, the Ambush acquired the greatest player in the history of the Major Arena Soccer League (MASL) when they signed free agent forward Franck Tayou in October.

“King Tayou is a big signing for them and will make their offense that much more potent, “ added Oliviero. “We really need to be tuned in and focused on defending inside our yellow line; not just for a quarter or two but for the whole game. We have to be very good defensively against them this year. Looking forward to Sunday.”
