Today the Philadelphia Wings (3-6) will face the Minnesota Swarm (1-7). The Swarm are coming off a 14-12 loss last night to the Toronto Rock.

Bandits Come Up Flat Against Wings

After the final horn had sounded and the game concluded against the Wings, the scoreboard told the final tale of the contest.

What occurred last night for me seemed to bring up feelings of déjà vu, especially from those late games in the 2013 season…
