The Dallas Sidekicks continued their torrid return campaign Saturday by thumping the Texas Strikers on the road, 16-4, to keep their undefeated season intact at 6-0.
Just two weeks removed from a franchise-record 21 goals scored against Texas, the Sidekicks didn't relent any less in the teams' third meeting of the season. Racing out to a 9-2 advantage by halftime, Jamie Lovegrove scored four goals in the win including a hat trick in the first half.
Franck Mbemba added four goals of his own, while Carlos Videla (2), Michael Uremovich (2), Paolo Da Silva (2), Renato Pereira and Robert Luevano also scored in the win.
Remaining unbeaten on the year, Dallas has now outscored opponents, 57-16, on the season. The team continues play tonight at 7:30 p.m. from the Allen Event Center against the Rio Grande Valley Flash.
The Sidekicks are 2-0 against the Flash thus far, claiming each outing via a 7-3 decision.
