Soccer Game Preview: Coldwater vs. Jackson

The Coldwater Cardinals will challenge the Jackson Vikings at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Neither squad made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.

Fans were treated to a battle of the Cardinals on Tuesday. Coldwater took a 2-0 hit to the loss column at the hands of Michigan Center. That's two games in a row now that Coldwater has lost by exactly two goals.

Meanwhile, Jackson's season-opener on Saturday wasn't quite what the team was looking for considering the end result. Neither they nor Howell could gain the upper hand so the two teams had to settle for a 1-1 draw.

Coldwater now has a losing record of 1-2. With that draw, Jackson's record moves to 0-0-1.

Coldwater might still be hurting after the 6-1 defeat they got from Jackson in their previous matchup back in March of 2018. Can the Cardinals avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
